Description
This remarkable, bright green soup features callaloo (taro leaves or dasheen), but spinach is an excellent substitute.

- 1 bunch scallions, chopped
- ¼ pound hubbard or acorn squash, peeled and coarsely chopped
- ¼ pound margarine
- ½ habanero chile, seeds and stem removed, minced
- salt and pepper to taste
Procedures
- In a stockpot or soup pot, combine all the ingredients and boil for 4 minutes.
