New Town Bistros: Butternut Apple Squash Soup


Servings: 6
Total Prep Time: 15 to 30 minutes

Ingredients:
1 (16 oz.) Bag frozen butternut squash
1 Small vidalia or sweet onion, quartered
1 14 oz. Can chicken broth
1 Medium apple, cut into cubes
1 cup Milk (or to taste)
1 tsp Olive oil
Salt and pepper

Procedure:
Heat olive oil on med-low heat in medium saucepan; sauté onion until soft. Add squash and broth (Add water if squash is not covered) and bring to boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer 8 minutes or until squash is tender. Puree with hand blender; salt and pepper to taste. Add milk. Ladle into individual serving bowls and top with chopped apple.

Notes:
You can serve at the table with milk and apple cubes on the side for each to add to their individual taste -- kids especially love this. If making ahead, add the milk and apple cubes just before serving.
