Butternut Squash Soup

This is one of my favorite soups, full of comfort and nutrition. If you need more protein in your diet, feel free to add organic shredded/cubed chicken or ground turkey.

Ingredients


  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 1 small onion, chopped

  • 1 medium butternut squash - peeled, seeded, and cubed

  • 1 (32 fluid ounce) container chicken stock

  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions


  1. Gather all ingredients.

  2. Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat, and cook onion, celery, carrot, potatoes, and squash until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Pour in enough chicken stock to cover vegetables.
