By reading 100 Ways You Can Start Loving Yourself Right Now. I’ve taken notes and will do three of the things off this list tomorrow.
By cooking Cabot Cheese Reduced Fat Butternut Squash Soup. Regan, the R.D. working with Cabot Cheese sent me this amazing recipe. I can’t wait to make it!
Makes 4-6 servings
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds butternut squash, peeled and cut into chunks
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup plain yogurt (low-fat or regular)
- 2 ounces Cabot 50% Reduced Fat Cheddar, grated (about 1/2 cup)
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
- Several chives, cut into 1-inch pieces
Instructions:
- In large saucepan, combine squash and broth. Bring to boil, then reduce heat to medium. Simmer until squash is very tender, about 20 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let stand until slightly cooled; puree in batches in blender.
- Return puree to saucepan and place over medium-low heat. Stir in sour cream, cheddar, butter and red pepper. Season with salt and pepper.
- Stir until heated through (do not allow to boil). Taste soup, adding sugar if squash was not particularly sweet. Serve sprinkled with chives.
What new thing are you doing this week to start your week off right?
I love butternut squash soup! And with cheese? That sounds like heaven in a bowl. Thanks for sharing!
Getting to bed early Sunday night! Which means now : )
Starting a brand new job with a smile on my face on Monday morning! 🙂
I’ll start my Monday with an early morning workout! The soup looks and sounds delicious!
Have a great week!
I start my week of right with exercise and eating wholesome foods. I normally do this anyway but if I get off track I try to stick to eating even less processed foods.
This is seasonal and fun!
I’m sitting down with a to-do list and will power…and coffee:)
That looks like an amazing soup recipe – I hope I get another butternut squash in my CSA this week!
When you make this soup, let us know how it comes out.
I love butternut squash soup but I usually make it dairy free and on the sweeter side.
Thanks for posting the recipe, it intrigued me.
It’s weird but going grocery shopping on Sunday and preparing for the week is what starts my week out right. I’m lost when I can’t make it and have to buy lunch or eat out.
