Acorn Squash Pear Soup
I just finished making a batch of this and I'm having a cup of it as I type. It is out of this world!
Ingredients:
1 medium acorn squash, baked and seeded
1 small onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
2 C. vegetable broth
1 large ripe pear, pared, cored, and cut into chunks
Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation:
Scoop squash pulp into bowl, discard skin.
In a 2-quart saucepan sprayed with nonstick cooking spray, cook onion and garlic over medium heat, stirring constantly, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add broth, pear, and squash pulp; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, simmer until pear is soft, 5-10 minutes.
Cool soup slightly. Transfer in small batches to blender; process until smooth. Return to saucepan; reheat. Serve hot.
Makes four (4) servings. For Weight Watchers, only 1 point!

I used a LARGE acorn squash and two pears for this batch. I should have added another cup of vegetable broth, but it's still very good. The flavors really blend nicely once it's all processed.
Enjoy!

Sounds like another way to get the grandkids to eat their veggies, I'll try it. :)
