Butternut Squash Turnip And Green Bean Quinoa Recipes

BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND TURNIP SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the butternut squash, turnips, celery, onion, and garlic; cook and stir until the vegetables just begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the chicken stock in a large pot over medium heat until simmering.
• Transfer the vegetables to simmering stock, and add the bay leaf, honey, pepper, nutmeg, coriander, cayenne pepper, and salt. Continue simmering until all the vegetables are softened, about 20 minutes. Remove the bay leaf before serving.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND TURNIP GREEN SOUP

Steps:

• Combine butternut squash, reduced-sodium chicken broth, diced tomatoes, water, black beans, great northern beans, turnip greens, 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, sugar, Creole seasoning, garlic powder, and salt in a large pot over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil.
• Meanwhile, heat remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage and onion in the hot skillet until sausage is browned and crumbly and onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add regular chicken broth and scrape up all the browned bits on the bottom of the skillet. Pour the mixture into the soup pot.
• Reduce heat and simmer soup until squash and greens are tender, about 45 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH, TURNIP, AND GREEN-BEAN QUINOA

Steps:

• In a sieve rinse quinoa under cold running water until water runs clear.

• Peel turnip and cut into 1/3-inch cubes. Mince garlic. Slice scallions thin on the diagonal and cut beans into 1/3-inch pieces.
• In a steamer set over 1 inch boiling water combine squash, turnip, and garlic and steam vegetables, covered, 7 minutes, or until almost tender. Add beans, quinoa, and salt and pepper to taste and steam 3 minutes, or until beans are crisp-tender. Transfer mixture to a bowl and toss with scallions.
