  • 2 Tbs of olive oil
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 1-2 garlic bulbs

  • 2 carrots cut up in pieces
  • 2 Macintosh apples cut up in pieces
  • 8 cups of water or vegetable broth
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • optional additions: chopped up parsley or cilantro, sprinkle of hemp hearts

Sautee the chopped onions for a couple of minutes in the olive oil, add in the garlic for 1 min and then add in the rest of the ingredients.  Bring to a boil and then simmer on low until the squash and other veggies are tender.Blend up and serve with a sprinkle of hemp hearts and chopped up parsley or cilantroEnjoy :)Jana
