Winter Squash Stew

Prep Time: 5 minutes—took me longer though for all the chopping!
Cooking Time: 15 minutes
Yield: 4 servings—but this is SO low calorie and healthy, feel free to make it only serve 2

Ingredients:

  • 1 winter squash, seeded, peeled, chopped (butternut, acorn, pumpkin, delicata)—I used butternut squash
  • 1 onion
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • veggie or chicken stock
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder—I skipped this as we are not fans of curry powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
  • optional: chopped, fresh cilantro or parsley, and/or toasted pumpkin seeds for garnish—we used cilantro–yum!

Directions:

  1. Sauté finely minced onion and minced garlic in a splash of olive oil.
  2. Place squash in a pot and fill with stock until just covered, then add spices, garlic and onion.
  3. Boil until tender.
  4. Mash or blend in blender until smooth and return to the pot to heat through.
