• In a stock pot, add in butter and olive oil and melt together. Add onions and celery to the stock pot and allow them to soften and become translucent. Stir occasionally. While that is going on, peel and dice the neck of one butternut squash. Set aside.
• Add thyme and garlic to the stock pot and stir in.
• Add in the cubed butternut squash and allow the simmer in the bottom of the pan so that squash softened and the edges start to brown slightly. About 5 minutes.
• Pour in low sodium chicken broth. Bring soup to a simmer. Once simmering, add in cheese tortellini. Add in spinach and allow to wilt. Simmer for two minutes. Then serve.

Cook the potatoes:

• Boil cut potatoes in salted boiling water until they easily fall from a knife pierced into them. Allow to cool, then dice and place in a large bowl.

Cook the eggs:

• Bring a medium pot of water to a boil (large enough to accommodate all the eggs in a single layer). As soon as the water boils, gently add the eggs. Set a timer for 9 minutes. Bring back to a boil and then turn down to a simmer. Meanwhile set up a bowl of ice water, large enough to accommodate all the eggs. When the eggs are done, use a slotted spoon to immediately transfer the eggs to the bowl of ice water. Peel and chop when cool enough to handle.

Cook the macaroni:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add salt. Cook macaroni according to package instructions, drain, then rinse with cold water and set aside.

Make the sauce:

• In a small bowl mix together the sauce ingredients. Add the onion, eggs, carrots, peas, and macaroni to the bowl with the potatoes. Mix in dressing until thoroughly combined. Check seasonings.

Marinate Chicken

• Mix marinade ingredients in a large bowl.
• Pierce chicken thighs with a fork several times on each side and place in the bowl of marinade.

Teriyaki Sauce

• While grill is heating add teriyaki sauce ingredients to a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Turn heat down to low and let simmer until sauce thickens up a bit, about 5 minutes.
• When ready to cook, drain chicken, discarding marinade. Grill chicken, turning once until chicken is cooked through. Brush with teriyaki sauce and continue cooking a few minutes more. Plate and serve with additional teriyaki sauce.
