Easy & Healthy Butternut Squash Soup
Serves 6 to 8
Ingredients
1 medium butternut squash, cut into smallish pieces
1 medium onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, chopped
2 1/2 to 3 cups water
pepper to taste
cooking spray or 2 tablespoon olive oil, if desired

Preparation
Using cooking spray to coat, saute the onion in a pot or pan until it is soft.
Add the garlic and continue sauteing for a few more minutes.
Add the water and squash at the same time and bring to a boil. Turn heat down and simmer for as long as it takes to soften the squash completely, usually less than 45 minutes.
