ITALIAN BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND WHITE BEAN SOUP WITH GREENS



Italian Butternut Squash and White Bean Soup With Greens image

I clipped this from a magazine years ago and just now came across it again. As someone who is allergic to cow's milk, I'm always happy to find tasty, satisfying vegetarian soups that are dairy-free. Although I haven't tried this one yet, it looks so good I know that I will do so soon. :) Prep time does not include peeling, seeding and dicing the squash; you can save time and effort by buying peeled and cut butternut squash, which is available at some grocery stores (such as Trader Joe's).

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
3 garlic cloves, minced
6 cups vegetable broth
2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, rinsed, drained
1 (1 lb) butternut squash, peeled, seeded, diced (about 2 1/2 cups)
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 cups coarsely chopped spinach (or other quick-cooking greens, such as watercress or Swiss chard)

Steps:

  • In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat until hot. Add onion and Italian seasoning; cook 3 minutes, or until onion is slightly tender.
  • Add garlic; cook for 30 seconds. Stir in broth, beans, squash, pepper and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Stir in spinach. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, or until squash and greens are tender.

Tips:

  • Choose the right squash: Look for butternut squash that is firm and heavy for its size, with a smooth, unblemished skin.
  • Roast the squash before adding it to the soup: Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Use a variety of beans: White beans are a classic choice for this soup, but you can also use other beans such as chickpeas, black beans, or kidney beans.
  • Add some greens: A handful of chopped kale or spinach adds a boost of nutrition and color to the soup.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little spice.

Conclusion:

Butternut squash and white bean soup is a delicious and nutritious meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a hearty and satisfying soup, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
