INGREDIENTS
400 grams Butternut Squash
1 cup Cannellini Beans (canned, low sodium)
1/2 cup dry Red Lentils
1 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 small Onion
3 cloves Garlic
2 cups Vegetable Broth (low sodium)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and cube the butternut squash into roughly 1-inch pieces. Toss the squash lightly with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and caramelized.
While the squash roasts, dice the onion and mince the garlic. In a large pot, sauté the onion and garlic over medium heat until softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
Rinse the red lentils thoroughly and add them to the pot along with the vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer and let the lentils cook for about 10 minutes.
Add the roasted squash and cannellini beans to the pot. Allow the mixture to simmer for an additional 5 minutes so the flavors meld together.
Remove the pot from heat. Using an immersion blender (or transferring in batches to a countertop blender), puree the soup until smooth, leaving a bit of texture if desired.
Stir in half of the Greek yogurt into the warm soup for creaminess, reserving the remaining yogurt for topping. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Ladle the soup into bowls and top each serving with a dollop of the remaining Greek yogurt. Serve warm and enjoy your comforting, protein-enriched roasted butternut squash soup.
