YELLOW SQUASH SOUP WITH CURRY AND GINGER

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except cream and garnish in the crock of your slow cooker and stir. Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours, until squash is tender. Use a handheld blender to puree the soup, or transfer it to your food processor in batches. Stir in cream just before serving, then garnish. Serves four. Tips: You can substitute any other squash if you prefer. Try butternut squash for a sweeter taste. Simmer squash soup in a pot instead of a slow cooker by cooking until squash is tender.
