INGREDIENTS
400g Butternut Squash
0.75 cup Chickpeas (canned, drained)
1 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 cup Vegetable Broth
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 small Onion
2 cloves Garlic
Pinch each of Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Ginger
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel, deseed, and cube the butternut squash.
Toss the butternut squash cubes lightly with olive oil, salt, pepper, and a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and lightly caramelized.
While the squash roasts, dice the small onion and mince the garlic. Sauté them in a small pan over medium heat with a tiny drizzle of olive oil until soft and fragrant.
In a large pot, combine the roasted squash, sautéed onion and garlic, chickpeas, vegetable broth, and an extra pinch of ginger. Bring to a simmer for 5-7 minutes to meld the flavors.
Remove the pot from the heat and use an immersion blender to blend until smooth, or carefully transfer in batches to a blender.
Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt gradually, ensuring the soup remains creamy and smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls and serve warm with a light garnish of freshly ground pepper or a sprinkle of extra spices, if desired.
