Squash And Apple Soup, from 100 Best Vegetarian Recipes:
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups peeled, chopped apples
3/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 cups vegetable broth
1 cup water
2 cups peeled, cubed butternut or buttercup squash
1/8 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper
1. In a 3-quart saucepan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the apples and onion; cook, stirring, until softened, about 4 minutes. Stir in the ginger and nutmeg until absorbed. Add the broth and water; bring to a boil. Add the squash and return to a boil. Reduce heat and summer, uncovered, 30 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
2. Place half of the soup in a blender or food processor. Cover and puree until smooth. Repeat with remaining soup, salt, and red pepper. Return soup to pot and reheat if necessary.
