These winter months have me CRAVING soup all of the time! I am one who does not do well with cold. I am always reaching for something warm. This Butternut Squash soup is an easy recipe and takes very little time after the squash is roasted. You can even prep for this days ahead by roasting your squash and refrigerating or freezing it until you are ready to make the soup.
Heads UP. Make sure you wash your utensils quickly. Anything porous will soak up that beautiful yellow goodness and it may be hard to come out. I just found a natural yellow dye! I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.
