Winter is almost here, so out come the comforting soups! What is your favourite combo of flavors in soup? I think this is mine right now. This butternut squash soup is so easy to make and is crammed full of veggies!
Making this soup is so easy. The secret to making it so creamy without any dairy is potatoes. They make any soup better in my opinion! You cook all the vegetables and then puree it to a smooth consistency. You don’t have to puree it, but it does make it much nicer to eat!
