Enchilada Soup

This recipe is impressive nutritionally and it tastes soooo good! I might also add that it's very easy because you boil everything in 1 big pot all together! Don't worry about the ingredients. You blend it all together so the kids and even the picky husband have no idea what you put into this thing. Rich swears he doesn't like squash but it's in here and he has no idea :)

2 Qts. water
1/2 butternut squash with outside peeled off
1 Tbsp. chicken bouillon
2-3 chicken breasts
1 can chopped green chili's
1 large onion chopped
5 medium potatoes, washed and cubed
1 sweet red pepper ( don't leave this out)
2 cloves garlic
1 t salt
1 1/2 tsp cumin
2 Tbsp Taco seasoning ( or 1 Tbsp chili powder)
2 cans white beans
1 c. sour cream

Cook everything except beans and sour cream in 1 big pot until veggies are tender.
Pull out the chicken when done and cube or shred
Dump the pot into your blender and blend then dump back into your pot. You could blend your beans to disguise them but I don't I add them after I've blended.
Add chicken, beans and sour cream.
Serve.
