Ingredients

  • 1 butternut squash about 4 lbs.
  • 1/2 yellow onion diced
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 1 tablespoons fresh sage chopped
  • 4 tablespoons oil   I used avocado oil
  • cooked bacon chopped
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

  2. Remove the skin and seeds of the butternut squash. Cut the squash in to 1 inch cubes, coat with 2 tablespoons of oil and roast in the oven until soft when pricked with a fork about 45 minutes.

  3. In a pan over medium heat add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil. Add in the onions. 

  4. Cook until soft about 10 minutes. Add in the copped sage. Next, deglaze the pan by adding 1 cup of stock, and scraping the bottom of the pan. Add in the rest of the stock and simmer for 5 minutes.

  5. Once the squash is done roasting, add it to a blender along with some of the stock. This might need to be done in batches to prevent overflow in the blender. Continue adding squash and stock until everything is blended.

  6. Pour the blended mixture back into the original pan to heat through. Adjust salt as needed.
