This soup is amazing and is best the day after it is made. Try it with a crusty bread!

Butternut Squash White Bean Soup
(a favorite during the winter that tastes best a few days after cooking, so make extra)
324 calories per serving
3 bacon slices (we do a few more)
Remove slices and crumble. Reserve 2t of drippings.

1c chopped onion
2/3 c chopped celery
3 garlic cloves minced
4c (plus some!) cubed and peeled butternut squash
(no need for intimidation: Using a sharp, large knife, cut the squash into slices about 1in thick. Stack two slices and cutting straight down, work around the squash removing the peel. It sounds far more troublesome than it is.)
¼ c dry white wine (always add a little extra)
4c chicken broth
1t ground cumin
¼ t ground red pepper (we like it hot and add more)
1/8 t cinnamon
1/8 t cloves
¼ c whipping cream
1T chopped oregano1t salt
¼ t ground black pepper
2 15oz cans Great Northern beans rinsed and drained
3T toasted pumpkin seeds

To drippings, add onion, celery, and garlic and cook three minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Add squash and cook another three minutes. Add wine and cook until liquid almost evaporates. Stir in chicken broth and add cumin, red pepper, cinnamon, and cloves; bring ot a boil. Reduce heat and allow to simmer until squash is tender (5+minutes). Stir in cream, oregano, salt, pepper, and beans and again, bring to a boil.
Allow soup to stand for as long as possible (you will understand when you have the leftovers!). Serve each bowl with pumpkin seeds and bacon sprinkled on top.

I will post more througout the winter at http://healthyhappysimple.blogspot.com/, as I am a huge soup fan during the winter.

This is what we are having tonight.I added some chopped ham after cooking the onions.

Broccoli-Cheese Chowder
* 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
* 1 large onion, chopped
* 1 large carrot, diced
* 2 stalks celery, diced
* 1 large potato, peeled and diced
* 2 cloves garlic, minced
* 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
* 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
* 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
* 2 14-ounce cans vegetable broth, or reduced-sodium chicken broth
* 8 ounces broccoli crowns, (see Ingredient Note), cut into 1-inch pieces, stems and florets separated
* 1 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
* 1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream
* 1/8 teaspoon salt

Preparation

1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven or large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrot and celery; cook, stirring often, until the onion and celery soften, 5 to 6 minutes. Add potato and garlic; cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Stir in flour, dry mustard and cayenne; cook, stirring often, for 2 minutes.
2. Add broth and broccoli stems; bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to medium. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes. Stir in florets; simmer, covered, until the broccoli is tender, about 10 minutes more. Transfer 2 cups of the chowder to a bowl and mash; return to the pan.
3. Stir in Cheddar and sour cream; cook over medium heat, stirring, until the cheese is melted and the chowder is heated through, about 2 minutes. Season with salt.

Tips & Notes

* Make Ahead Tip: Prepare through Step 2. Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 2 months.

* Ingredient note: Most supermarkets sell broccoli crowns, which are the tops of the bunches, with the stalks cut off. Although crowns are more expensive than entire bunches, they are convenient and there is considerably less waste.
