- 2 lb buttercup squash peeled & cubed, seeds removed
- 2 lbs sweet potato peeled & cubed, approx 3 medium potatoes

- 5 cups low sodium vegetable broth

Instructions
- Add the chopped onion and garlic to a large pot with two tablespoons of water and sauté until soft and golden, about 3 minutes.

- Using an immersion blender, purée your soup until smooth and creamy. Serve garnished with pumpkin seeds, if desired.

Notes
- Don't stress over uniform sized veggie pieces. Since you'll be pureeing the soup, you won't need similar sizes.
- Use an immersion blender to puree your soup for less mess, ease, and less dishes to wash!
- If you don't have an immersion blender, use extreme caution when blending hot liquids. Don't overfill your blender, and work in batches to prevent spills.
- Taste for salt or other seasoning once cooked, and add more, if needed. Depending on the broth you're using, you may need more salt.
- This soup is thick in texture. If you prefer a thinner texture, use an additional cup of broth or stir in a cup of your favourite milk after pureeing. Cashew or soy milk also work well.
- If time permits, roast the veggies for added depth of flavour. Roasting the squash, sweet potatoes, onion and garlic will add even more incredible flavour to your soup.
- For a sweeter version, add up to ¼ of cup maple syrup or unrefined coconut sugar to your soup.
- Leftovers keep refrigerated in a sealed container for 3-4 days. Or freeze airtight for up to 3 months.
