Although hearty with lots of nutritious vegetables and turkey, this soup is also light and luscious. —Denise LaRoche, Hudson, New Hampshire
Ingredients:
3 shallots, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon olive oil
3 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
3 cups cubed peeled butternut squash (3/4-inch cubes)
2 medium red potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1-1/2 cups water
2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 whole cloves
3 cups cubed cooked turkey breast
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan coated with cooking spray, cook shallots in oil over medium heat until tender. Stir in the broth, squash, potatoes, water, thyme and pepper.
2. Place cloves on a double thickness of cheesecloth; bring up corners of cloth and tie with string to form a bag. Stir into soup. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Stir in turkey; heat through. Discard spice bag. Yield: 6 servings (2 quarts).
