Ingredients:

• 1 TBSP olive oil
• 2 large onions, diced
• 2 lb. peeled and diced butternut squash
• 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
• 1 package soft tofu, drained and diced
• 1 tsp ground ginger
• 1 TBSP lemon juice
• ½ tsp dried thyme
• 1 tsp salt
• Freshly ground pepper to taste

PREPARATION

Heat olive oil in a large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add the diced onions and sauté for a few minutes until tender. Add the butternut squash and sauté a few more minutes, and then add broth. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the squash is very tender, about 20 minutes. Add the tofu and ginger, lemon juice, thyme, salt and pepper to the pot, and simmer a few more minutes until the tofu is heated through.

Purée the soup in batches in a blender or food processor. Return to the pan and reheat until the soup is very hot, but not boiling. Ladle into bowls and garnish with fresh thyme or thin strips of lemon peel, if desired.

Makes 6 servings.
