Squash and Apple Soup image

Yogurt provides a tangy contrast to the sweetness of the apples and the cider; squash puree gives the soup a creamy texture, without the fat of heavy cream.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
3 medium Granny Smith apples (about 1 1/4 pounds), peeled and finely chopped
2 1/2 cups apple cider
1 teaspoon ground ginger

Coarse salt and ground pepper

This soup is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either.

I'm not a fan of the combination of squash and apple. I think they taste better separately.

This soup is way too sweet for my taste. I would use less apple next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out lumpy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This soup is a bit bland for my taste. I would add more spices next time.

I'm a vegan, so I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. The soup was still delicious!
