Mmmmmm.. Butternut Squash! Creamy, velvety and oh so flavorful. Put it in a soup and you have a creamy delicious Butternut squash yumminess!
You Need:
2 Medium Butternut Squash peeled seeded and cubed
4 Medium carrots peeled and chopped
2 Medium Onions Chopped
3 Celery stalks chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Water

Directions:
Pour oil in a big pot on a medium flame
Place the chopped onions inside
slowly add the rest of the veggies giving a good mix
pour enough water only to cover the veggies
Add salt and pepper to season to your liking
Put on a high flame until the water begins to bubble
Lower to a small flame to cook for 45 minutes to an hour
When the veggies are well cooked remove from the fire
Using a hand blender or food processor, blend the soup to a fine puree
Happy souping!
* For a cheesy twist sprinkle some Parmesan or shredded cheese when serving
