Butternut Squash Soup



Butternut Squash Soup  -From the Vegan Table - I tried a version of my own recently and prefer this simple recipe

1 medium size yellow onion, diced
1 to two tablespoons water or veggie broth , for sauteeing
1 inch piece fresh ginger, minced
3 garlic cloves, minced - ( i use pre chopped)
2 cups peeled, seeded, and cubed butternut squash
2 medium size yellow potatoes, peeled and cubed (I don't bother peeling)
salt and fresh ground pepper

In a medium size sauce pan , cook onion in broth until translucent , about 5 minutes. Add ginger aand garlic and saute for a few more minutes. Add butternut squash, potatoes, and enough water to cover the squash and potatoes
Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 30 minutes or until squash is soft. Add to a blender http://www.vitamix.com/
season with salt and pepper and enjoy!!
