Diana's Chicken Soup

This is a great twist on chicken soup and I have to give a big thank you to my wonderful friend Diana. She introduced this to me at a Book Club meeting. Again this is one of those that you can make your own and it does not get easier. The biggest most difficult thing is buying to the rotisserie chicken and deciding what veggies to use.

1 Rotisserie Chicken (picked off the bone & skin removed)
2 cup diced butternut squash
1/2 diced onion
4 cups low sodium chicken stock
6 cups fresh spinach
1tbsp butter
1 tsp ginger
1 tsp garlic powder or fresh garlic (2 cloves)
pinch kosher salt
crushed red pepper to taste
white pepper to taste
1/2 tsp curry (if you do not like this simply leave it out)

Saute squash and onion until just beginning to soften, add picked chicken and chicken stock. Stir in all spices (feel free to add more of less depending on your own tastes) bring soup to simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Just before serving add the spinach, simmer an additional 5 minutes.

If you wish you can serve with fresh bread.
