Directions

1. Add water, butternut squash, sweet potato, carrot, apple, garlic, onion, sage, salt, cayenne, cinnamon, and nutmeg to a large stock pot. Toss to combine. You can add fresh parsley if you have it handy.
2. Cook on high until veggies are tender and smash easily with a fork.
3. (Or you can transfer the soup in two batches into a traditional blender, and purée until smooth, being very careful when working with the hot liquid.) I removed some of the liquid before transferring to blender.
4. Transfer liquid back into stock pot. Add milk to thicken and add salt and pepper, to taste.
5. Serve warm and enjoy! Video tutorial on Instagram.com/mimis_plates
