Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp olive oil or 1 tbsp butter
2 -3 lbs butternut squash, peeled and diced into 1-inch chunks . (about 1)
3 large carrots, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tbsp minced fresh ginger (1-inch piece)
2 quarts vegetable stock or 2 quarts cold water
1/8 cup grated orange zest
1 bunch parsley, chopped
1 pinch ground nutmeg
sea salt , to taste
ground pepper , to taste

Directions:

Heat olive oil or butter over medium heat in a large sauce pot.
Sauté squash, carrots, onion, and ginger for 3 minutes, until they are lightly browned.
Add stock and orange zest, and bring to a boil.
Lower to a simmer and cook uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes, until vegetables are tender.
Add parsley, nutmeg, and salt and pepper.
Purée soup with a hand held immersion blender or in a food processor until smooth and creamy.
Whole foods recommends making croutons with cinnamon raisin bread for a garnish. I like to roast the squash seeds with some coarse salt to have on the side.
