Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp olive oil
1 small onion, diced
3 (15 1/2 oz) cans low-sodium chicken broth
1 butternut squash, peeled and diced (about 1 1/2 lb)
1 tbsp chopped gingerroot
1 bay leaf
1 (8 1/4 oz) can diced carrots, drained
1 (5 oz) can evaporated fat-free milk
1/4 tsp nutmeg
pepper
chopped chives or green onion, for garnish

Directions:

Heat the olive oil in a large sauce pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and saute until the onions are softened and translucent. Add the chicken broth, squash, ginger and bay leaf. Cover. Simmer until the squash is soft, about 30 minutes.
Add the carrots and heat through. Puree the soup in batches in the blender or food processor. Return to the saucepan. Stir in the evaporated milk and nutmeg. Season to taste with the pepper. Heat through. Garnish with chopped chives or scallions.
