Ingredients
  

  • 2 tsp curry powder
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • ½ large onion
  • 1 medium red apple
  • 2 cups low sodium chicken or vegetable broth
  • 2 14 oz cans pumpkin
  • 1 cup low-fat greek yogurt
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 dash pepper (to taste)

Instructions
 

  • Core the apple, and dice into small pieces, skin-on.
  • Crush the garlic and thinly slice the onion.
  • Add the olive oil, garlic, and onion to a medium-large pot.
  • Place the pot on the stove, and turn the burner onto medium heat.
  • Cook the garlic and onions until softened, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the diced apple and curry powder to the pot. Saute for 2-3 minutes until aromatic.
  • Pour the broth and canned pumpkin into the pot. Stir to combine the ingredients.
  • Season the soup with salt and pepper.
  • Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low.
  • Simmer for 25 minutes on low.
  • After 25 minutes, stir in the Greek yogurt, and simmer for another 5 minutes.
  • Let the soup cool slightly. Pour the soup into the blender. Blend on medium-high until smooth. Alternatively, you can use an immersion blender if you have one.
  • Ladle the soup into serving bowls, garnish with cinnamon and enjoy!

Notes

You can easily substitute pumpkin for butternut squash if pumpkin isn't your jam. To make this vegetarian/vegan simply substitute the chicken broth for vegetable stock and the greek yogurt for low-fat coconut milk to give it that slightly creamier texture. Just be mindful that this will reduce the protein content of the soup and increase the amount of fat per serving.
