Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 large yellow onion chopped
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 3 lb Butternut squash peeled, seeded, and cubed
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh sage chopped
  • 1/2 tbsp fresh rosemary minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger grated
  • 3-4 cups vegetable broth
  • fresh ground pepper

Instructions
 

Butternut Squash Soup

  • Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  • Add the onion, salt, and pepper (to taste) and sauté until soft, about 5-8 minutes.
  • Add squash and cook until it starts to soften, occasionally stirring, for 8-10 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, sage, rosemary, and ginger. Stir and cook 30 seconds-1 minute. Add 3 cups of the vegetable broth.
  • Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce to a simmer. Cook until the squash is tender, which should be about 20-30 minutes.
  • Let the soup cool slightly and pour the soup into a blender and pulse until smooth. Work in batches if you need to. If the soup is too thick, add up to 1 cup more broth and blend. Season to taste.

Notes

Serve with chopped parsley, toasted pepitas, and crusty bread
