Corn Soup with Butternut Squash Recipe

"We enjoyed this DELICIOUS Corn Soup with Butternut Squash Recipe very much, thank you."





Image of butternut squash soup recipe, with corn. The sweet taste of corn shines through this easy soup recipe.

Using butternut squash as a base enables you to make a thick, creamy soup that is full of "good for you" vegetable goodness.

If I am serving this corn soup for company, I often will toss in a bit of cooked and crumbled bacon. Although this adds quite a bit of sodium to the soup recipe, those of us who are salt sensitive can easily avoid scooping out soup that has any bacon on top.

 Butternut Squash and Corn Soup
 
 

1   onion  
1   celery rib  
2 Tbs    flour  
15 oz    no salt added chicken broth  
4 lbs    butternut squash (2 large)  
16 oz    frozen corn  
2 cups    half and half cream  
1 Tbs    minced fresh parsley  
1/4 tsp    pepper  
1/4 cup    sour cream  
 
1 Peel and cut the butternut squash. Cut into small pieces and cook in a small amount of water in a saucepan until tender.
2 Remove the squash to a bowl and mash, or use a blender to process smooth. Reserve.

5 Chop the onion and the celery. Sauté them in a small amount of olive oil, or unsalted butter until the onions are translucent.
6 Stir in the flour until blended. Gradually stir in the broth. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring often until slightly thickened.
7 Reduce the heat and stir in the corn, squash parsley and pepper. Cook and stir until heated through.
8 Scoop into bowls and top with sour cream dollops, if desired.
