It’s SOUP SEASON YA’LL!!

This yummy butternut squash tomato soup is full of creamy goodness and one you have to add it to your soup list ASAP!

A frost was coming and I needed to bring in all of our tomatoes, I wanted a tomato soup but saw the butternut squash, I had recently purchased from the store, staring at me. It’s like it knew I usually get too afraid to cook with new ingredients and was begging me to use it. YES, I’ve never cooked with butternut squash, although I’ve had it at a friends and enjoyed it, I was too afraid. Until today!!

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

1 Butter Squash Cut in Half
1-2 cups of tomatoes
1-2 Carrots
half an Onion
4 Garlic Cloves
4 Cups of Homemade Bone Broth
1 Cup Half & Half
Oregano & Thyme
Salt & Pepper

WHAT TO DO:

Pre-heat oven to 425

Line a sheet pan with parchment paper, add butternut squash that has been cut in half and tomatoes to the pan, I liked to cut the tomatoes in half.

Sprinkle olive oil and about half of the seasonings over the squash & tomatoes, onions & garlic

Add a chunk of butter into the butternut squash and put into the oven at 425 for 15-20 minutes or until squash is soft

once roasted add everything to a stock pot, add the chicken broth, remaining spices and bring to a boil.

once boiling turn the heat down and stir in the half and half

let shimmer for about 5 minutes.

Use an emersion blender to blend up the soup

serve with a side of sourdough grilled cheese 🙂
