A seasonal classic, this Whole30 Roasted Butternut Squash and Apple soup is sweet and savory, the perfect accompaniment to any fall meal. Or, serve it with a protein like steamed fish or shredded chicken to make it a full meal by itself. This cozy dish was created especially for us by our longtime collaborator Laura Miner of Cook At Home Mom

Laura blended the soup right in one of Zip Top’s large dishes and stored leftovers in the same container, too. Not familiar (yet!) with Zip Top? Imagine if a plastic bag and a glass container had a baby. A baby that didn’t require you to match lids with containers. A baby that zipped shut, stood on its own in your fridge, and stacked neatly in your drawer or cabinet.

That’s Zip Top. (Our HQ team is officially in love.) Their one-of-a-kind design stands up, stays open, and zips shut. They are extremely versatile for Whole30 meal prep, food storage, and eating on the go. And, they’re good for the planet and your budget. One Zip Top can replace 5,000+ disposable bags … invest once, and say goodbye to buying single-use plastic bags in every size.

Zip Top’s 100% platinum silicone construction contains no BPA, plastic, fillers, or other harmful chemicals, and it also means they’re extremely durable (microwave, dishwasher, and freezer safe).

If you’ve been wanting to clear out that food storage container clutter and start fresh, now’s your chance. We have an exclusive code for 215% off PLUS free shipping on your Zip Top order. Use WHOLE30 at checkout—click here to check out their line of products and place your order.

Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 50 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups diced butternut squash
  • 2 small red apples (we recommend Gala or Fuji, and don't recommend baking apples like Granny Smith, Honey Crisp, or Red Delicious)
  • ½ onion
  • 2.5-3 cups Whole30 compatible chicken or vegetable broth
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • ¼ tsp ground turmeric ,optional, for color
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (~204°C). Meanwhile, peel and dice the butternut squash and apples. Slice the onion.
  • Toss the squash, apples, and onion with the olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet. Roast the vegetables for 25-30 minutes, stopping once halfway through cooking to turn the pieces over.
  • Once the vegetables are done roasting, carefully transfer the mixture to your Zip Top large dish. Add the turmeric, if using. Pour in 2.5 cups of the chicken or vegetable broth. Use an immersion blender to blend the mixture until smooth and creamy, adding a bit more liquid to thin it out, if needed.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper. The amount used will vary based on the saltiness of the broth used and personal tastes.

Notes

To store for later, allow the soup to cool, then close the seal and store in the refrigerator for 3-4 days, per USDA.
