Butternut Squash Soup
Note: Don’t substitute squashes. I made this mistake and it’s not as good.
Ingredients:
- 6 tablespoons chopped onion
- 4 tablespoons butter
- “Meat” of one large roasted butternut squash
- 3 cups water
- 4 cubes chicken bouillon
- 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
- 1/8 teaspoon white pepper
- 1 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
Directions:
- Roast squash for about 40 minutes, face down in a baking dish; cool and scoop out meat (can do this on a separate day).
- In a large saucepan, saute onions in butter until tender.
- Add squash, water, bouillon, marjoram, and white pepper. Bring to boil, then simmer for about 20 minutes.
- Puree squash and cream cheese in a blender or food processor in batches until smooth.
- Return to saucepan, and heat through. Do not allow to boil.
- Enjoy the awesomeness!
