Write a review
Print
Ingredients
  1. 1 large butternut squash (about 5 lbs)
  2. 1 green apple, sliced and cored
  3. 1 small yellow onion, chopped
  4. 2 carrots, chopped
  5. 3 tbsp olive oil
  6. 2 tsp cinnamon
  7. 1 1/2 tsp salt
  8. 1/2 tsp cumin
  9. 1 tsp chili powder
  10. 2 tbsp ghee/butter
  11. 3 cups chicken broth
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine the butternut squash, olive oil, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp cumin. Mix together, coating the squash well. Spread out on a rimmed baking sheet.
  2. Next, in the same bowl that the butternut squash was in, toss the apple slices, onion, and carrots to coat with the remnants. Place on a second rimmed baking sheet and add both baking sheets to the oven. Roast for 35-40 minutes until soft, stirring once.
  3. Heat up ghee over medium heat in a large pot on the stove. Add the roasted ingredients and then the chicken broth. Add 1 teaspoon each of salt, cinnamon and chili powder. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.
  4. Using an immersion blender, combine the ingredients until smooth, or transfer to a blender to puree. Serve warm.
  5. The end result is a creamy, delicious and ridiculously healthy soup. It is a perfect fit for the fall and bursting with flavor.

4 Benefits of Whey Protein for Your Workout

4 Benefits of Whey Protein for Your Workout
You’ve probably been bombarded with promotional material for various proteins and supplements. If you’re trying to get into shape, it can be hard to know which ones are REALLY good for you. Committing to a protein-shake just because it’s got snazzy advertising isn’t always the best idea. Thankfully, there are some proteins that really do come with a lot of benefits. We’re going to look at 5 of them that are associated with whey protein, and why it could be good for your workout.
1. It helps you lose fat while preserving muscle
If you’re trying to get ripped, this has got to be one of the biggest benefits of whey protein. Research has shown that those who consume whey while cutting their calorie intake lost more body fat and retained more muscle compared to those who didn’t. This means you could add the pounds in muscle while shedding it in unwanted body-fat.
2. Helps to increase size and strength
Another study also showed that those who took whey an hour before a workout-out managed to increase their fat-free mass and muscle strength compared to those who took a placebo.
3. Helps to reduce stress
While exercising regularly is said to be a good way of relieving stress, those who take whey protein could be protecting themselves even more. Research has suggested that those who consume whey protein are more likely to be in a better mood and less stressed than those who don’t, because of a change of serotonin levels in the brain.
4. It improves your immune system
Evidence has suggested that particularly strenuous exercise could adversely affect your immune system. This could be problematic if you’re lifting really heavy. However, research has also suggested that consuming whey protein reduces this effect on your nervous system and helps keep you protected.
