Cooking Instructions

45 mins
  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.

  2. 2

    Place butternut squash, onion, bell pepper and diced bacon in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Add olive oil and garlic; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Gently toss to combine.

  3. 3

    Place into oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, until butternut squash is tender, stirring at halftime.

  4. 4

    While squash is in the oven, heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add rest of bacon strips and cook until brown and crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

  5. 5

    Heat a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add butternut squash mixture and thyme, and cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in chicken stock and puree with an immersion blender.

  6. 6

    Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5-10 minutes. If the soup is too thick, add more chicken stock as needed until desired consistency is reached.

  7. 7

    Serve immediately, garnished with bacon, goat cheese and chives, if desired.
