Butternut Squash Soup with Ravioli
Ingredients
  • 2 pounds  butternut squash
  • 2 14 1/2ounce can vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup  water
  • 1/8 teaspoon  cayenne pepper
  • 1 tablespoon  margarine or butter
  • 1 9 ounce package refrigerated cheese ravioli
  • 1 tablespoon  molasses (optional)
Directions

1. Peel squash. Halve lengthwise. Remove seeds and discard. Cut squash into 3/4-inch pieces.

2. In a large saucepan, combine squash, broth, water, and cayenne pepper. Cook, covered, over medium heat for 20 minutes or until squash is tender.

3. Transfer one-fourth of the squash-and-broth mixture to a blender container. Carefully blend, covered, until smooth. Repeat until all of the mixture is blended.

4. Return blended mixture to large saucepan. Bring just to boiling. Immediately reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Add the margarine or butter, stirring until just melted.

5. Meanwhile, prepare the ravioli according to package directions. Drain. Ladle hot squash mixture into bowls. Divide cooked ravioli among bowls. If desired, drizzle with molasses. Makes 5 side-dish servings.
