BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP WITH CIDER CREAM. From Bon Appetit
Makes 8-10 servings
I make this all year and especially for Thanskgiving. The cider and apples give it a wonderful sweet taste! When you serve it with the cider cream, you are sure to elicit some WOWS! Yummy soup! I add the cream but you could omit if you want.
Ingredients
5 Tbsp butter
2 1/2 lb butternut squash, peeled, seeded, cut into 1/2 inch pieces (about 6 cups)
2 Cups chopped leeks (white and pale green parts only)
1/2 Cup chopped peeled carrot
1/2 Cup chopped celery
2 Small Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, chopped
1 1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp crumbled dried sage leaves
5 Cups chicken stock or canned low salt chicken broth
1 1/2 Cups apple cider
2/3 Cup sour cream
Various Ingredient(s)
1/2 Cup whipping cream
Chopped fresh chives
Directions
Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium high heat. Add squash, leeks, carrot and celery; saut ntil slightly softened, about 15 minutes. Mix in apples, thyme and sage. Add stock and 1 cup cider and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium low. Cover and simmer until apples are tender, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes. Cool slightly.
Working in batches, pur soup in blender. Return soup to pan. Boil remaining 1/2 cup cider in heavy small saucepan until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 5 minutes. Cool. Place sour cream in small bowl. Whisk in reduced cider. (Soup and cider cream can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately and refrigerate.)
Bring soup to simmer. Mix in whipping cream. Ladle soup into bowls. Drizzle with cider cream. Top with chives.

Vegetable Beef Stew
Ingredients:
2lbs English Roast (or any other suitable roast), cut into stew size chunks (1"x1")
2 containers Beef Stock (3 cups each - 6 cups total)
1 can tomato soup
2 T olive oil
5 medium russet potatoes, cut into 1"x1" cubes (skin left on)
1 package raw baby carrots (cut each in half)
1 package frozen sweet peas
1 medium onion, diced
2 T minced garlic
Kosher salt
Fresh ground pepper
Rosemary
Cumin
Cayenne Pepper
(all seasonings to taste)
Warm a large dutch oven/stock pot over medium high heat. Add olive oil. Once oil is hot, add onion and garlic. Sautee until onion is almost translucent. Add beef cubes and sprinkle with rosemary and salt. Sautee until beef is browned on all sides. Use 1 cup of stock to deglaze the pan, stirring as you pour it in. Add can of tomato soup and stir until well mixed. Add vegetables. Sprinkle with cumin, cayenne pepper, ground pepper and more salt (I start with at least 1 tsp of each). Add the rest of the stock and stir to mix well.
Cook over medium-low heat for 4-5 hours or until beef is tender and potatoes and carrots are cooked through. Add seasoning as desired. Makes 12 1-cup servings (1 serving is very filling!).
Enjoy!
