Butternut Squash Soup

Cubing the butternut squash

Hello friends! It’s been quite a while since I shared a recipe, so here’s another one for you. What I really like about this recipe is that it’s doesn’t require peeling the squash. I originally got this recipe from www.allrecipes.com , but I have modified it a bit.    

These are some of the ingredients I use for this recipe

6 tablespoons chopped onion

4 tablespoons margarine

6 cups cubed butternut squash

3 cups chicken broth

1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne or jalapeno pepper

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese

In a large saucepan, sauté onions in margarine until tender. Add squash, broth, marjoram, black pepper and cayenne/jalapeno pepper. Bring to boil and cook  for 20 minutes, or until squash is tender.

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.

Please comment and tell me how this turns out and what you think of it. Enjoy!
