INGREDIENTS
2 cups cubed Butternut Squash
1 medium Yellow Onion
1 medium Carrot
3 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Olive Oil
2 cups Vegetable Broth
1 cup Cooked Green Lentils
1/2 cup Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 tsp Ground Cumin
Pinch Nutmeg
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a large bowl, toss the cubed butternut squash with olive oil, a pinch of salt, pepper, and a dash of ground cumin and nutmeg.
Spread the squash on a baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, in a large pot, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium heat and sauté the chopped yellow onion, carrot, and minced garlic until soft and fragrant.
Add the roasted butternut squash, cooked green lentils, and vegetable broth to the pot.
Bring the mixture to a simmer and let cook for another 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Use an immersion blender or transfer the mixture in batches to a blender, and blend until smooth and creamy.
Return the soup to the pot, adjust seasonings with salt and pepper if needed, and bring back to a gentle simmer.
Serve hot in bowls, topping each serving with a dollop of nonfat plain Greek yogurt for extra creaminess and protein.
