Healthy Fact of the Day

Butternut squash is a nutritious and vitamin-rich ingredient, and when transformed into a creamy soup with sage, it's a delightful and wholesome option.

Ingredients

 

  • 1 butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cubed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage (or a few fresh sage leaves)
  • 4 cups vegetable broth (low-sodium)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Heavy cream for garnish (optional)
  • Fresh sage leaves for garnish (optional)

 

Instructions

 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Toss the cubed butternut squash in 1 tablespoon of olive oil and spread them on a baking sheet.
  3. Roast the butternut squash in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
  4. In a large pot, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
  5. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent.

  8. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for about 10-15 minutes.
  9. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a blender in batches and blend until smooth, then return it to the pot.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
