Ingredients
- 1 butternut squash (medium-sized), peeled, deseeded, and cut into ½" thick slices
- 1 cauliflower head (medium-sized), broken into florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon red chili flakes Double for a spicier soup
- 1 ½ cups milk (2% or whole)
- 1 cup lager-style beer, plus more if desired
- 1 cup vegetable broth, plus more if desired
- 2 ounces sharp cheddar, freshly shredded
- 2 ounces Parmesan, freshly grated
- warm pretzels, to serve with (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425ºF.Arrange the butternut squash on a single layer on a baking sheet. Arrange the cauliflower florets on a separate baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil, and then sprinkle the salt, paprika, and chili flakes over the veggies.
- Add the squash to the oven. After 15 minutes, add the cauliflower to the oven. Roast until both trays of veggies are tender when pierced with a fork (about 30 minutes total for the squash, 15 minutes total for the cauliflower).
- Add veggies, milk, beer, broth and cheese to a soup pot. Use an immersion blender and blend until creamy. Alternatively, add the ingredients to a blender basin, and work in batches if your blender is too small.Note: Depending on the size of your vegetables, you may need to add more liquid to the soup. Taste the soup, and add more beer if you want a stronger beer flavor, or more broth for a milder flavor.
- Warm soup in the soup pot until heated through.Alternatively, heat on low in a slow cooker until warm, and keep slow cooker set to "warm" while serving guests at a party.Serve with pretzels.
Notes
- Nutrition information does not include optional pretzels.
