Curried Butternut Squash and Apple Soup!
This is my first experience with our wedding present crockpot and my new absolute favorite kitchen appliance. I can not believe how easy it is to make this delicious soup. I'm freaking out here...it took 10 minutes to throw it all in. The recipe calls for peeled squash and apples but I just left the outside on. It blends up fine and is probably healthier?? haha..who knows but it's soo easy. I also added a 1/2 cup cilantro and didn't have curry powder but used 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper and 1/2 tsp cumin instead and it was spicy good. This is a new favorite in my collection for sure!
2 Tablespoons butter (I didn't use any butter)
2 cups chopped onions
1/2 cup thinly sliced celery (I didn't have any)
1 Tablespoon curry powder
1/2 tsp ginger
1 butternut squash cubed and seeded
3-4 apples cut and seeded
1/4 cup white rice
6 cups chicken stock
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Sautee onion, celery and spices until fragrant
Throw everything into the crockpot
Cook on low for 6 hours
Puree the soup with a handblender or regular blender
garnish with cilantro, sour cream, and pine nuts
