Spicy butternut squash soup
This recipe is low points, filling and travels great into work. It's still a tiny bit bland and I'm planning to have a bit of a think about what other flavours would perk it up a little.
Recipe
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 butternut squash, cut into cubes
- 800ml chicken or vegetable stock
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon dried chilli
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 pinch of pepper
- 100g very low fat cream cheese
- Fresh coriander
- Cook onions with 1 tablespoon of water until onions are soft.
- Add butternut squash and stock. Simmer until butternut squash is soft right through when poked with a fork.
- Add herbs and then blend until the soup is smooth.
- Add soft cheese and blend again until the soft cheese has been incorporated.
- Serve garnished with some fresh coriander.
