So I had a butternut squash left in my cupboard and decided to knock up a soup.
I wasn't expecting miracles, but a miracle happened!
It was the yummiest soup EVER!
1 butternut squash cubed.
1 carrot chopped
2 celery sticks chopped
1 onion chopped
1 red pepper chopped
2 garlic cloves halved
1 red chili chopped
1 1/2 pint of vegetable stock (i used 2 oxo cubes).
chuck it all into a pan.
boil, reduce heat & simmer until the squash has softened.
blend.
serve
Serves 4!
Per serving: 76 cals, 16 carbs, 0 sat fat, 2 protein, 3 fiber, 144 sodium

How big was the squash? They seem tiny at the moment, in comparison to the one's I got in the summer. Any idea if it was say, small, medium or large? lol
Sorry to be pedantic :bigsmile:
