How to Make Acorn Squash And Granny Smith Apple Soup

  1. Pierce one medium acorn squash several times with a fork. Microwave on high for 8-10 minutes, or until slightly softened.
  2. Carefully remove from microwave and let cool slightly.
  3. Halve the acorn squash lengthwise and scoop out the seeds and fibers.
  4. While the squash cools, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  5. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and diced. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until softened.
  6. Stir in 1 teaspoon curry powder and cook for 1 minute more.
  7. Scoop the flesh of the acorn squash from the skin and add it to the pot. Discard the skin.
  8. Pour in 4 cups of chicken or vegetable broth.
  9. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the squash is very tender.
  10. Carefully transfer the soup to a blender (or use an immersion blender) and puree until completely smooth.
  11. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  12. Serve hot, garnished with a dollop of plain yogurt or a sprinkle of chopped fresh herbs (optional). Enjoy with crusty whole-grain bread!
