Prep time: 20 mins
Cook Time: 30 mins
Servings: Approx 5 one-cup servings

Ingredients

  1. 1 large butternut squash (about 3 pounds, peeled and seeded and cut in 1-inch chunks. Note: you may find this already cleaned and cut at your grocery store.)
  2. 1 yellow onion, chopped
  3. 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  4. 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  5. 4 cups low sodium vegetable broth

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. Place the squash and onions on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Gently toss everything together to coat the vegetables.
  3. Spread the squash and onions out into a single layer and roast for 25 to 30 minutes, turning once half way through.
  4. Let the vegetables cool down and then place them in a high speed blender along with the broth. Blend until you have a rich, creamy soup (adjust broth as needed, you may need a little more or a little less).
  5. When ready to serve, transfer to a pot and heat over medium heat until warmed through. Enjoy!
