Crockpot Butternut Squash Soup




It's soup season and my crock pot is my best friend this winter, especially with having no time to cook after work since Gavin likes to be help from the second I walk in the door until bedtime.  I'm not complaining, but it does make it super hard to prep dinner with one hand (although that has been done too).  I love fall flavors and butternut squash is one of my favorites for soups. 




  • 1 butternut squash, chopped & seeded into 1/4 inch cubes
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 3/4 cup almond milk
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
Place squash, onion, garlic,  1 cup of chicken broth and butter in a slow cooker, and cook on high for about 4 hours.
Using a blender, puree until smooth.  Return to crockpot and add remaining chicken broth, almond milk, & nutmeg.  Cook for about 30 more minutes, or until soup is heated through.  Sprinkle with cinnamon for garnishing.

Ever After,
Jamie
