Roasted Butternut Squash Soup is about as comforting of a soup as you will find.
It’s just so warm and wonderful any time of the year, but we love it during the holiday season.
Oh, Roasted Butternut Squash Soup…you’re so good.
Roasting the veggies brings out such incredible flavor.
You can easily find pre-cut butternut squash in most supermarkets.
This soup tastes like it took hours to make, but it’s very simple!
Just simmer the Roasted Butternut Squash to continue melding the flavors.
This soup is not too heavy, too. It’s so creamy tasting, but there’s no cream used! The ginger and the touch of curry powder adds such amazing flavor.
Delicious!
The smell of this Roasted Butternut Squash soup is heavenly.
This is one soup you’ll want to make over and over.
