BUTTERNUT AND TURNIP SOUP
Okay, before you turn up your nose, just hear me out :) Butternut soup always tastes a little too sweet for me, so today I tried adding a turnip. It was the perfect complement, now the taste is just right. For me at least!

Steps:
- Heat oil and butter over medium heat, add onion and carrots and saute until soft.
- Add garlic and saute a few more minutes.
- Add a bit salt at each stage, then a little more if needed at the end. I use a total of 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt for the entire recipe.
- Add squash, turnip and bouillon, then just enough water to barely cover the veggies.
- Cover and bring to a low boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 35 minutes or until squash is tender.
- Select a pan to make the roux (white sauce). I use a large, wide pan, large enough to hold the roux plus the vegetable soup.
- Make the roux by sauteeing flour in butter til golden, then slowly stir in the milk or almond milk. Heat until thickened, stirring frequently, then turn off heat.
- Puree the vegetable soup in blender until smooth, then stir it into the thickened roux.
- Add the spices, salt and pepper to taste.
