Super Simple Squash Soup - Courtesy of Haupy's Seasonings

Haupy's Beaver Rub is a beautiful, mildly spicy Canadian seasoning. It is an original flavour, with a taste and style that is sure to delight. And while we recommend you have some on hand as a meat rub, it is delicious in soup! Today's recipe comes from Haupy's Seasonings kitchen:

Ingredients:

• 2 medium butternut squash peeled and diced into 1" cubes
• 3 tablespoons of Well Seasoned Extra Virgin Olive Oil*
• 1 small onion, finely diced
• 1 large piece of ginger, peeled and minced
• 3 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 cup frozen corn
• 8 cups chicken broth*
• 2 tablespoons of Haupy's Beaver Rub*
• *Available from Well Seasoned

Instructions:

1. Put olive oil, onion, squash, garlic and minced ginger into a pot. Now add Haupy's world famous Beaver Rub. Mix together and sauté on medium heat until fully coated.
2. dd the broth and bring to boil on medium heat. Cook until the squash becomes soft. Mash squash with a potato masher in a pot, leaving it as chunky. Add more broth if needed.
3. Stir in the corn. Garnish the soup with chopped green onion, parsley, or minced red pepper. Delicious!
