Ugh i'm sick again. By the time i got home last night my throat was very sore and my voice was starting to go!
This morning it doesn't feel as bad so i think because i have to talk a lot at work it's aggravating whatever it is i've pick up.
So today work 2-10 then i get to come back for 8 in the morning. The good part is that i'm off at 2 tomorrow so i can still have a life :)
As promised butternut squash soup recipe:
1 tbsp of olive oil (yes i kept this in because i'm notorious for not getting enough fats)
I onion chopped
1 clove of garlic peeled and chopped
2 lbs of butternut squash soup ( i got a medium sized one and it was just a tad over 2 lbs) peeled and cubed
3 cups of vegetable or chicken broth( i got the kind with no salt)
Salt and pepper
Put the oil, onion and garlic in a large pot and saute until soft.
Add all the other ingredients except salt and pepper and bring to a boil.
Cook for approx 30 minutes or until nice and soft.
I then put my immersion blender in and processed until beautiful and smooth. If you don't have one you could used a blender or food processor or even a potato masher :)
Add salt and pepper to taste.
If your adventurous you could also add a bit of curry powder.
The original recipe is here: i tweaked it by not using the butter :)
I thought i'd have some to put in the freezer, but no, the hubs also decided he loved it!

one of my fave soups.
Thanks for the recipe. It sounds delicious. I have one squash left from my garden so I may try it.
Have a great weekend.
Thanks for the recipe, Suzi! I have 2 butternut squashes ready to go. I wonder how it would taste if I added some curry to it? If it tastes okay, I'll let you know (although you may not be a curry fan.)
Get well soon, and get some rest.
I think the sore throat is going around Ontario!!!! I love Squash soup, and I make a similar one only with added carrots, leeks and a white potato. YUM!
Feel better fast - the soup looks great. I just got an immersion blender so love another opportunity to use it.
I've never heard of a soup like this before. It looks really good!
I hope you are back to spunky again, real soon! The soup looks wonderful, I'm going to try it this upcoming week! I like butternut squash soup. I hope you feel better soon, and can kick that bug to the curb!! xx
