Squash soup

As you know, I didn't feel well last night- so we made soup. I thought I'd share the recipe (if I can remember what I did). Soups are so easy! Put a bunch of your favorite veggies in a pot of boiling water and/or broth and add spices.

I got two packages of cooked squash out of the freezer section of publix, thawed it in the microwave and it comes out as this squash purée. I just chopped half of an onion (I prefer an apple, but I didn't have one) and sautéed it with a bit of butter until it was soft. Added my squash, about two cups veggie broth, 1/8ish cup of cream (milk or 1/2&1/2 would work fine too), 3 tbsp honey, salt and cayenne pepper to taste. Let it cook for a bit and done!

If you feel like being really fancy, you can top it off with some "crème fraîche"- I just made it by mixing a bit of cream and Greek yogurt with a touch of lemon. I loved the lemon topping on it. It just brightened it up a bit. Caleb and I were feeling fancy last night. He's going to be gone until next Saturday (with the exception of a Sunday break), so it was sort of our date night. Although my nose was runny and my tummy was queasy, it was very nice!
