CREAMY ACORN SQUASH AND LENTIL SOUP (VEGAN) RECIPE - FOOD.COM
Adapted from an Australian Women’s Weekly cookbook. Their version used kumara, which although we can find here, it isn’t as easy to find. Good use for a bumper crop of acorn squash in your garden. The lentils in this soup make it thick and creamy. I tried to add chives under the list of ingredients (just for garnish), but the recipe builder wouldn't accept it. Sorry reviewer #1 had such problems with it - not clear why you had to peel hot squash, when you start with the squash peeled and chopped. I upped the prep time based on your comments, although I had no problems doing all the chopping in 15 mins.

Steps:
- Warm the oil in a soup pot/dutch oven. Add in the onions and allow them to cook over medium heat until translucent (about 5-7 minutes).
- Add in the acorn squash, let that cook together for a few minutes along with the sage.
- Add in the broth followed by the lentils; stir well and bring to a boil.
- Once boiling, bring back down to medium heat, cover and allow to simmer for about 20 minutes, until the squash is soft.
- With the squash nicely cooked and the lentils cooked and starting to break up on their own, turn the heat off and blend until smooth (either in batches using a blender, or using an immersion blender).
- Garnish with some fresh chives, chopped or in a few long sprigs. A dollop of something creamy would be great as garnish too.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Put squash into a baking dish with the cut side down. Pour enough water into the baking dish to cover the bottom.
- Bake in preheated oven until the flesh of the squash is easily pricked with a fork, about 45 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool until squash can be handled. Scoop flesh into a bowl and set aside.
- Melt butter in a pot over medium-high heat. Cook onion, carrot, and garlic in melted butter until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour chicken stock into the pot; add the squash.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes.
- Pour mixture into a blender no more than half full. Cover and hold lid down; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend. Puree in batches until smooth and return to pot.
- Stir half-and-half, nutmeg, and cinnamon through the blended soup; season with salt and pepper. Thin the soup with water if desired.

- Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter and cumin seeds and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in leeks, carrots, shallots, ginger and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the carrots begin to soften, about 10 minutes. Stir in jalapenos, coriander and turmeric and cook, stirring, 1 minute more. Stir in tomatoes and 1 cup of the reserved cooking liquid (if there isn't enough, make up the difference with water). Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, then cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the reserved lentils and simmer until they are soft and tender but not falling apart, 3 to 5 minutes. If the mixture seems dry, add more cooking liquid (or water). Stir in roasted peppers. Season with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Divide the lentil stuffing among the squash (a generous 1 cup per half). Serve garnished with a dollop of yogurt.
