The recipe:
- Butternut Squash, 6 cups, cubed (equivalent to one Butternet Squash)
2 Gala Apples
Yams, 2 cups, cubes
Onions, raw, 1 medium (2-1/2" dia)
Fresh sage to taste
Pepper, black, .5 tbsp
Garlic powder, 1 tbsp
PAM spray or olive oil
Vegetable broth (low sodium), 5 cups
Fat Free Evaporated Milk, One can
Laughing Cow Light Creamy Swiss Original Cheese, 3 wedges
Cayenne Pepper, 1 tbsp
- * 1 tsp cinnamon (I added this and liked the sweetness it added)
Preheat your oven to 400F
Spray a baking tray with Pam, and then arrange the Squash, Sweet Potato, Apples and Onion on the tray.
Coat the top of the vegetables again with the Pam spray or olive oil and evenly sprinkle black pepper and Garlic powder.
Place on a high rack in the oven for 45-60 minutes until the vegetables are lightly browned and soft to a fork.
Place the roasted vegetables in a blender with the vegetable broth and purée until evenly combine and smooth (I added fresh sage during this process)
Stir in the laughing cow wedges until they melt
Add Cayenne pepper and the kosher salt to your taste preference
Stir in 3/4 can of evaporated milk
Continue to warm over the low heat until ready to serve.
