INGREDIENTS
800g Butternut Squash (peeled and cubed)
134g dry Red Lentils (≈ 2/3 cup)
400g Nonfat Greek Yogurt
0.67 tbsp Olive Oil
100g Yellow Onion (chopped)
4 cloves Garlic
4 cups Vegetable Broth
Salt, pepper, nutmeg & cumin to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the cubed butternut squash with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Spread out on a baking sheet.
Roast the squash for 25-30 minutes until tender and lightly caramelized.
While the squash roasts, heat a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until translucent and fragrant.
Add the dry red lentils to the pot along with the vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 15-20 minutes until the lentils begin to soften.
Once the roasted squash is ready, add it to the pot with the lentils. Season with a pinch of nutmeg and cumin; adjust salt and pepper to taste.
Using an immersion blender, blend the mixture until smooth and silky. Alternatively, transfer in portions to a blender.
Reheat gently if needed. Serve hot with a generous swirl of nonfat Greek yogurt on top for added creaminess and protein.
Enjoy your nutritious bowl of silky roasted butternut squash soup!
