-
- 4 cup(s) vegetable broth
- 12 oz uncooked butternut squash, peeled and cut into 1- to 1 1/2-inch cubes*

- 1/8 tsp black pepper, or to taste
- 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg, or to taste

- In a large stock pot, combine broth, squash, onion and apple; cover pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Uncover pot and reduce heat to low; gently simmer until squash is very tender, about 10 minutes.
