Cinnamon Butternut Squash Soup

 

I'm always in the mood for cinnamon, but especially in the fall. I just can't get enough!

Ingred:
about 3 lbs of butternut squash, peeled, de-seeded, and cut in cubes
4 c skim milk (or vegetable broth)
1/2 block of tofu
1 T cinnamon
1 t nutmeg
oil, salt, pepper




  1. Peel, core and cut squash in cubes.
  2. Pile on a baking sheet.  Spray with oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  3. Bake for 1 hour at 350˚
  4. Puree all ingredients in a food processor. (Careful not to fill it too full, do it in batches if yours has a small bowl.)
  5. Eat.
It's almost too easy. And too tasty, this stuff isn't going to last long :)

  1. Yay, more recipes!
    You always have great food to share.
    Any advice on preparing beets for someone who doesn't seem to like them would be great.

  4. Thanks guys! I have no idea about beets. I don't think I've tried them since my grandma got me to try a slice fresh out of her garden. Of course, at the time I was a picky little kid, but I haven't made my way back to trying beets. Maybe I'll have to now...

    I got the tofu idea from fresh365's post on broccoli cheddar soup.
