How to Make Almost Fat Free Vegetarian Butternut Squash Soup

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

  4. In a 2-quart saucepan, combine the butternut squash, zucchini, bell pepper, 4 cups vegetable broth, 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes (undrained), and 1 teaspoon salt.
  5. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, or until the squash is tender.
  6. Carefully transfer the soup to a blender (or use an immersion blender).
  7. Add 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Blend until completely smooth.
