butternut squash soup
I’ve experimented quite a bit with different variations of this soup and realized that many of them have the same base. This is a simple, easy version that’s a great place to start and allows room for experimentation based on your tastes and preferences.
Ingredients
𝗕𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝘂𝘁 𝘀𝗾𝘂𝗮𝘀𝗵 (to save time, get it already prepped- whether that’s halved or cubed)
𝗟𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗱 𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲 (chicken/veg broth or stock, for a creamier option use coconut milk)
𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘀 (i’ll often go for green and peel them - but a sweeter apple is also delicious)
𝗖𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗿𝘆
𝗢𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 or shallots
Instructions
Chop all ingredients and throw into the crock pot
Add spices to taste (I like salt, pepper, and a hint of cinnamon)
Cook on high for 4 hours, low for ~6-8, or until vegetables feel tender and ready to blend
Use a handheld immersion blender to create a puree, adding more liquid or spices if you need - can also use a blender or food processer
Et Voila! One. Pot. Magic. 😋
