Recipe yields 8 servings
In a large saucepan, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add the onions and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes, or until softened. Add the carrot, celery, butternut squash, thyme, nutmeg, salt and pepper and stir for 1 minute. Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes or until squash is tender. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
Transfer mixture to a blender and puree until smooth. Return to saucepan and reheat over low heat before serving. Serve with a dollop of Greek yogurt and sprinkle of pumpkin seeds, if desired.
