Let's Talk About Food.

Ingredients

  • 3 strips thick cut bacon, diced
  • ½ large yellow onion, roughly chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2.5 cups chicken or vegetable stock
  • 1.5 cups roasted butternut squash puree
  • 4 oz. goat cheese, plus extra for garnish
  • ½ cup milk (I used 1%)
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley leaves, for garnish

Directions

  • Put diced bacon pieces in a large pot over medium heat. Cook until fat has rendered and bacon is crispy, about 7-10 minutes.
  • Remove cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside. Leave the bacon fat in the pot over medium heat.
  • Add chopped onion and garlic to bacon fat and stir to combine. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent and slightly browned, about 4 minutes.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add a splash of stock to the pan to deglaze, and scrape up any browned bits with a wooden spoon or stiff spatula. Add the rest of the stock and stir to combine. Bring mixture up to a simmer.
  • When soup is simmering, stir in butternut squash puree and bring the mixture back up to a simmer.
  • Remove soup from heat and blend with an immersion blender until smooth.
  • Add goat cheese to soup and stir until cheese has melted.
  • Add milk to soup and stir to combine. I like to use my immersion blender one more time here: blend until all milk and goat cheese are completely incorporated and the soup is smooth and velvety.
  • Ladle soup into individual bowls and top with a sprinkle of goat cheese, a handful of the bacon you cooked at the beginning of the recipe, and a sprig of parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy!
