Autumn Bisque Soup
Note from Registered Dietitian, Stacy Steinberg:

Don't be intimidated by the egg yolks and heavy cream in this recipe, as these are the elements which contribute the protein and calories which are so important during cancer treatment. The apples, onions and butternut squash create a burst of warm flavors, not to mention the rich source of vitamin A in the squash. This combination makes this a wonderful beginning to any meal. If you find that you are experiencing any gastrointestinal sensitivity you may want to consider peeling the apples and minimizing the onions in the recipe.

Ingredients:

1 lb.butternut squash, pared, halved, seeded and cubed
2tart apples, pared, cored, cubed
2 cupsmedium-sized onion, chopped
2 sliceswhite bread, trimmed and cubed
4 cupschicken broth
1/4 tsp.pepper
1/4 tsp.ground rosemary
1/4 tsp.marjoram
2egg yolks, slightly beaten
1/4 cupheavy cream

Combine the squash, apples, onion, bread, chicken broth, pepper, rosemary, and marjoram in large saucepan. Bring to boil. Lower heat; simmer, uncovered, 35 minutes or until squash and apples are tender. Remove from heat and cool to lukewarm.

Working in batches, spoon the soup into the container of an electric blender or food processor. Cover; whirl until pureed. Return the soup to the saucepan. Reheat the soup gently over very low heat.

Mix together the egg yolks and the cream in a small bowl. Beat in a little of the hot soup; return yolk mixture to the saucepan, stirring. Heat gently to serve. Do not boil the eggs will curdle. Garnish with a fresh rosemary sprig if you wish. Makes 6 servings.

This rich chocolate dessert is a decadent way to top off a good meal and is so easy to prepare. With just a few ingredients, you can create a calorie-rich delight in each small serving. For those experiencing sensitivity to lactose, you may wish to substitute Lactaid 100 or other soy or rice-based milk products where regular milk is indicated. If you prefer vanilla, the recipe is easy to modify by using vanilla-flavored instant pudding and pie filling and eliminating the chocolate squares.
