PREPARATION
1.
Add the olive oil to a large pot and turn the heat on to medium/high.
2.
Add the onions, celery, and carrots to the pan and cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring to heat evenly. Add the potato and squash and cook for 5-8 more minutes.
3.
Cover the vegetables with chicken stock. Bring this to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and let it sit for 45 minutes. You'll know it's done when the squash is tender.
4.
Transfer to a blender or food processor in batches. It helps to leave as much broth in the original pot as possible (so the soup isn't too watery). You can always add more broth into the food-processed soup afterwards (if it's too thick).
5.
Season with salt and pepper.
