Time 2h20m

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 lb diced butternut squash (about 1 inch)
1 stick unsalted butter
1 white onion, coarsley chopped
6 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 can(s) fire roasted tomatoes (drained)
1 can(s) great northern or cannellini beans- drained
1/2 c sour cream
1-2 dash(es) of each: allspice, Worcestershire sauce, Sriracha
24-32 oz chicken or vegetable stock
COATING FOR SQUASH
1/2 Tbsp fresh black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, sage, italian seasoning, chili powder
1 tsp paprika, cumin, marjoram
ROASTED RED PEPPER PUREE
4 red bell peppers
1 bunch fresh basil leaves (about a handful)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400. Cover a large baking sheet (I used a half sheet pan) in foil. Drizzle a layer of olive oil- probably a few tbsp. Dump squash on the pan.
  • 2. Mix seasonings listed for the squash in a bowl and then sprinkle about half over the top. Toss with your fingers to bring up some of the oil and then add half the remainder of the seasoning and toss again. What's left will be used in a few steps. Bake on 400 for 20 minutes.
  • 3. After 20 minutes have gone by, toss the squash and return to the oven for another 15-ish minute. You want some browning on the edges but no burning. When it's done, it can hang out on the counter for a bit until you need it.
  • 4. While the squash is in the oven, add the butter and garlic to a large stockpot on medium heat. Let that simmer, stirring occasionally, until the garlic begins to turn golden. Then add the onion and remainder of the squash seasonings plus the allspice.
  • 5. Simmer the onion for a couple of minutes on medium heat. Then add the squash, Worcestershire, beans, and tomatoes. Cook on medium for a few minutes while stirring.
  • 6. Add 3 cups of vegetable or chicken stock (or enough to be even with the top of the vegetables). Let it come to a boil, add a squirt or two of sriracha. Then reduce heat to simmer and cover for 30 minutes. You can stir it after about 15 and lower the heat if it starts boiling vigorously.
  • 7. At some point when you have a minute, put the bell peppers on a pan in the oven. Roast them on 400 for about 40 minutes, rotating after 20. When they're beginning to burn on the outside (on all sides) they're done. Let them rest on a plate until they're cool enough to handle barehanded. The skin should come off very easily, remove the seeds and throw the meat into a blender or food processor with the basil and some pepper. Puree until smooth and that's done for now.
  • 8. The soup can simhmer/boil until the squash starts to get very mushy. Once it is, turn off the heat and puree to your preferred consistency with an immersion blender or regular blender.
  • 9. Add the sour cream and stir. Add any seasonings if it needs them as well.
  • 10. Now you can serve it! For dinner, I put the soup in a bowl and put some of the red pepper puree in the middle (mostly because it looked pretty) but you can also mix all of the puree right into the soup. It's really good with some crusty bread.

SAVORY ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH BISQUE SOUP



Savory Roasted Butternut Squash Bisque Soup image

This is a vitamin rich, naturally low calorie, high fiber, creamy indulgent bisque, that is guaranteed to warm you on these cold lingering days of Winter and Spring and just anytime you need some good comfort food. This recipe is easy to make, because you don't have to peel and dice the squash and sweet potatoes before roasting. You simply scrape the tender meat out of the skins. Panera Breads is where I had my first Butternut Squash Soup and I fell in love. I believe they use pumpkin in their recipe. I saw a recipe on the internet using sweet potatoes and I tweaked it to come up with this recipe.

Yield 1/2 cup servings, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 whole butternut squash
2 whole medium sweet potatoes
1 whole medium white onion
2 cups onion soup, liquid from mix
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
4 tablespoons roasted cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoons applesauce
3 garlic cloves
1/4 cup sunflower oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

  • Peel and quarter the onion.
  • Peel the garlic cloves.
  • Rub the squash, sweet potatoes, onion and cloves with sunflower oil.
  • Place them on a foil lined roasting pan, suitable to catch drips.
  • Roast vegetables for 1 hour or until fork tender.

  • Add water to onion soup mix according to directions.
  • Remove vegetables and cool to touch.
  • Spoon the soft meat out of the skins of the sweet potatoes and squash and put in mixing bowl.
  • Mix the large vegetables with an Immersion blender and with the sweetened condensed milk. If the bisque is sweet enough with the milk, you can eliminate the applesauce in the next step.

  • Add 1/2 cup or more of the onion soup mix in increments to thin the bisque, until the desired consistency and taste is reached. If the needed amount of soup is too strong, substitute water as the remaining liquid needed for desired consistency. Blend until creamy.
  • Garnish, upon the request of each guest, with the remaining roasted cinnamon powder.

SAVORY ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP



Savory Roasted Butternut Squash Soup image

The 2 hour cooking time is largely unattended - This is savory and a little bit sweet, spicy, warming, thick & creamy. A perfect autumn soup to sip by the fire pit after a long day of raking. My kids love this soup and ask for it - It's a great way to sneak veggies in to their diet too! This is a three step recipe and I've kept the added salt minimal as commercial stocks are often salty - Please salt and pepper to taste! I also recommend an OXO vegetable peeler for the squash. Change ups to this recipe I've tried: Balsamic vinegar for the cider vinegar - the taste is a bit sharper. Molasses for the maple syrup - a more savory option. A sprig or two of fresh rosemary added with the broth - Awesome! Enjoy!

Time 2h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 large butternut squash
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
3 carrots
1 onion
4 -6 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons olive oil or 2 tablespoons butter
1 quart chicken or 1 quart vegetable stock
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°. Peel, seed and cut the butternut squash into 1 - 2 inch chunks. In a large bowl, combine the vinegar with the maple syrup, salt, pepper, granulated garlic, and thyme. Add the squash and toss well to coat. Arrange squash on a baking sheet and roast for 30 - 45 minutes.
  • Step 2: While the squash is roasting, chop the onion, carrots, and garlic. In a large dutch oven or stock pot sauté the onions and carrots in the oil until a little soft and beginning to brown. Remove the squash from the oven and add it to the dutch oven with the garlic. Pour the chicken stock over. Bring the stock to a boil, then cover the dutch oven and put it in the oven and adjust the temperature - you can let this slow cook at 250 for two hours or more, or roast it at 325° for about an hour.
  • Step 3: Using an immersion blender or a potato masher roughly mash up the soup and return it to the oven at 325° for 30 minutes. You may have to add a little water or stock if the soup is too thick. Adjust the seasonings and serve!
