1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup dry sherry
6 cups chicken stock
2 ounces angel hair pasta, broken into 2-inch lengths

SQUASH, POTATOES AND ONIONS- OH MY!



Squash, Potatoes and Onions- Oh My! image

A wonderful side dish that I make as soon as the yellow squash start coming in. When I first started making this about 30 years ago, I used the bacon grease. I found I like the margarine better and I like the squash to cook so that you have a few browned pieces in. Oooohh, that gives it so much flavor!

VEGAN BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP WITH ALMOND MILK



Vegan Butternut Squash Soup with Almond Milk image

A rich and savory vegan butternut squash soup recipe to make for lunches during the week or for the beginning of a delicious meal. For an added richness, I prefer to roast the squash in the oven for 30 minutes before adding to the soup stock. Other fall squash varieties work well too, but my favorite is butternut. Garnish with fresh parsley.
