Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped

  • ½ teaspoon sea salt

  • 4 cups of cubed butternut squash

  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)

  • 1 tablespoon (chopped) of each herb: sage, fresh rosemary, thyme

  • 1/2 tablespoon of grated fresh ginger

  • 3 cups of chicken or vegetable broth (low sodium)

  • Salt + pepper to taste

  • Toppings: pepitas, coconut milk, sourdough bread, microgreens

Directions

  • In a large pot, add olive oil at medium heat. Add the onion and season with salt and pepper, allowing the onion to sauté for 6-8 mins or until soft and translucent.

  • Add the butternut squash and cook for 10 minutes, stirring consistently and adding olive oil as needed so it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan or burn.

  • Next, add in your herbs, garlic and ginger, stirring to coat the squash. Sauté for 1 minute and then add in the broth.

  • Bring everything to a boil then cover and reduce heat to a simmer, cooking for 25 minutes.

  • After letting to soup cool 5-10 minutes, either use an immersion blender or pour into a blender to puree.

  • Serve with a drizzle of coconut milk, pepitas or additional toppings.
