3 cups homemade broth

make by simmering 1 onion, 2 stalks of celery

and 3 cups of alkaline water for 20 minutes

The How To

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

In a large bowl, combine the butternut squash,

olive oil, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp cumin. 

Mix together, coating the squash well.

Spread out on a rimmed baking sheet.

Next, in the same bowl that the butternut squash was in,

toss the apple slices and onion to coat with the remnants.

Place on a second rimmed baking sheet and add both baking

sheets to the oven. 

Roast for 35-40 minutes until soft, stirring once. 

Heat butter over medium heat in a large pot on the stove.

Add the roasted ingredients and then the chicken broth.

Add 1 teaspoon each of salt, cinnamon and chili powder.

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.

Using an immersion blender, combine the ingredients until smooth, or transfer to a blender to puree. Serve warm.
