Squash Soup
From Helen Parent
Thank you Helen Parent for sharing this delicious soup recipe with us. In Helen’s own words:
I titled this soup “Not Your Grandma’s Squash Soup.” I came up with this recipe because I am lactose intolerant and a friend at work has a gluten allergy. This soup, if made right, has three different layers of taste. A sweet layer from the cinnamon and nutmeg, a savory layer from the Italian spices and curry, and finally a spicy ending from the Habanero Maple Pepper®. It’s got a kick that my Grand Mother would never have thought to add to her soup!
Ingredients
1 butternut squash 1 acorn or 1 buttercup squash 1 small onion 3 medium potatoes 2 long carrots 3 small stalks of celery 6½ cups water ¼ cup brown sugar 2 tbls butter 1 tsp ginger ½ tsp Highland Foods Maple Pepper® w habanero ½ tsp Italian seasoning mix ½ tsp garlic power ½ tsp salt ½ tsp curry power ¼ tsp cinnamon ¼ tsp nutmeg
Directions
Half and seed squash and place on a baking sheet. Cook at 400 degrees until tender, 30-45 minutes depending on size. Peel and cube potatoes, carrots, onion and celery. Scoop cooked squash from shell and place in a large pot or Crock-Pot. Combine with rest of ingredients and cook until all items are soft. Puree ingredients with stick blender until smooth. More water can be added at this time to make soup smoother. Serve hot. Garnish with sour cream or plain yogurt.
