Ingredients

Directions

1. Wash hands with soap and water.

2. Rinse fresh produce.

3. Heat oil in an 8-quart soup pot over medium heat. Add leek, carrot, garlic, apple and potato and cook for 10 minutes or until produce begins to soften, stirring occasionally. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons water if necessary to prevent burning.

4. Add sherry and cook for 3 minutes or until liquid evaporates. Add chicken broth, lime juice, squash and bay leaf and bring to a boil.

5. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 35 minutes or until vegetables become tender; remove bay leaf. Add remaining herbs and spices and stir.

6. Using an immersion blender, carefully puree soup until smooth. Add half-and-half, stir and warm over low heat until heated through.

7. Serve with a swirl of sour cream on top, if desired.
