Ingredients
- 1 pound butternut squash ravioli
- 2 TBS olive oil
- 1 small yellow onion diced
- 1 cup butternut squash cubed
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 1 TBS fresh oregano (substitute dried)
- 1 TBS fresh basil chopped (substitute dried)

Instructions
- In a large soup pot or dutch oven, heat olive oil. Sweat the onions and squash cooking for about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and fresh herbs, stirring until fragrant. Next add the pumpkin puree and let that sit for about 1 minute until it cooks down a bit. Add the carrots and broth to the pot along with a parmesan rind if you have one. Bring that to a slow boil and reduce to simmer. Cook covered for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes stir in the ravioli, parmesan, cream and kale. Let that cook together for about 10-15 minutes just until the kale has softened. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve the soup topped with extra parmesan and fresh herbs with some crusty bread on the side. Enjoy!
