@Nullo Eek, sorry to hear this question isn’t hypothetical. Here’s a puree soup recipe that is full of healthy stuff and calories and is delicious:
Ingredients
5 tbsp unsalted butter
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
2 medium apples, thinly sliced
1 large white potato, diced
1½ cups chopped peeled butternut squash, fresh or frozen (I get fresh and microwave it for 10 minutes beforehand)
salt and freshly ground pepper
½ tsp dried sage
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
⅓ cup apple cider (I use apple juice)
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup milk
2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
Directions
Melt 4 tbsp butter in a large pot over medium-low heat and add the onion, apples, potato, and squash. Season with salt and pepper and cook until the onion is soft, about 8 minutes. Stir in the sage and flour. Add the cider and cook over high heat, stirring, until thickened. Add the broth and milk, cover and bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring until the potato is soft, 8 to 10 inutes.
Add the cheese to the soup and stir over medium-low heat until melted. Puree in a blender in batches until smooth, season with salt and pepper, garnish with grated cheddar.
