Chilled Squash and Carrot Soup
Serves 4
- 1½ lbs. butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cubed (about 3 cups)
- 1 (14½ oz.) can chicken broth
- 2 medium carrots, sliced
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/2 cup fat-free evaporated milk
- 3 Tbsp. reduced-fat sour cream
In a large saucepan, combine the squash, broth, carrots, onion and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until vegetables are very tender. Remove from heat; cool. In a blender or food processor, puree mixture in batches (too much for 1 container). Transfer to a bowl; stir in milk. Cover and chill until serving. Garnish with sour cream.
