A Great Website with Healthy Recipes… for Beginners and Experts Alike


I never thought I’d be able to maintain a healthy lifestyle with my sub-par cooking skills.  Here is a website that I use regularly that has healthy, simple, comforting, zero-guilt recipes for health enthusiasts like me.

Yumsugar.com provides recipes for soup, salads, sandwiches, desserts and party planning.  It even offers recipes for vegetarians and beginner cooks, like me!  I visit this site frequently for cooking tips and how-to videos, and it’s hard to eat the final product without feeling self-congratulatory and accomplished.

With fall weather approaching, I am going to share with you one of my favourite YumSugar.com soup recipes that is warm, delicious and fall-like to me.  I hope you give it a try and enjoy it as much as I do.

Ingredients:
1 butternut squash
1 yellow onion
32 oz. chicken broth
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt & pepper to taste

Directions:
1.     Preheat oven to 450 degrees
2.     Peel, de-seed and dice squash into squares
3.     Peel and dice onion (roughly 1-inch pieces)
4.     Place the squash and onion onto foil lined baking sheet.  Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.  Roast in oven for 45-50 minutes until squash is golden and tender.
5.     In a large pot bring the broth to a simmer.  Add the roasted veggies.  Puree using a blender.  (May need to work in batches).  Add a drizzle of olive oil and enjoy!
