Curried Butternut Squash Soup with Lime Cream
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.

  2. 2

    Set the butternut squash cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the cut sides with olive oil; season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Bake in the preheated oven until the butternut squash is tender when pierced with a fork, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remove the squash from the oven and let it cool slightly, about 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Scoop the flesh from the roasted butternut squash into a saucepan; add broth, garlic powder, onion powder, curry powder, salt, and pepper. Bring the squash mixture to a simmer until the flavors blend, about 10 minutes.

  5. 5

    Fill the blender no more than halfway with the squash mixture. Cover and hold the lid down; pulse a few times before blending continuously. Puree in batches until the soup is smooth.

  6. 6

    Whisk the sour cream, lime juice, and lime zest in a bowl until the lime cream is evenly combined. Serve the soup in bowls; top each with a dollop of the lime cream.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe

easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.

The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.

Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.

Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
