Recipe Corner : Apple Butternut Squash Soup

I love soups, esp this time of year and I have found that when I add a soup to my lunch it helps me feel much more full when I'm done and helps me not over eat. I went online and found a few recipes for butternut squash and I asked a good friend how she makes hers so I put a little bit of all of them together. This is so yummy and super low in points!!! Enjoy!!!


Apple Butternut Squash Soup 

1pp/1pt per cup! 

3lb butternut squash, peeled, seeds removed and cut into chunks
2 small apples (I used jazz apples)
1 onion, diced 
2 cloves garlic
1/2 cup diced carrots 
3 tbs of fresh parsley 
4 cups of vegetable broth
All spice powder- to taste
Nutmeg powder- to taste
Ginger powder- to taste


Put the butternut squash, apples, onion, carrots, parley, 3 cups of vegetable broth, and spices in a pan and cook about 10 minutes or until squash is tender. Then in batches blend soup in a food processor. Put processed soup in a sauce low while you finish blending everything. Once all blended and reunited in sauce pan add the last of the broth to your liking....less for thicker soup, more for thinner.
