Here is my recipe for a delicious, creamy and hearty soup made from butternut squash and potatoes. It's fast and easy and perfect for chilly, fall weather and is a great vegetarian recipe to boot!

Ingredients:

  • 1 butternut squash
  • 4 small potatoes
  • 2 cups milk
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 tsp salt
  • Olive oil
  • Additional salt
Directions:

Peel and cube squash. Coat in olive oil and sprinkle with salt to taste. Roast squash in a 425 degree oven until cooked through. Meanwhile, peel potatoes, cut into cubes and boil in water until soft.

When potatoes and squash are cooked, place in a food processor or blender. Add milk and melted butter. Puree until smooth.

Serve warm or chilled.

We love this with a big hunk of sourdough bread. The sourness of the bread goes well with the sweetness of the soup.

Sounds Good NEW

This sounds delicious, Amelia. I just made butternut and potato (and tons of other vegetables) soup last night! I never liked squash growing up, but I'm starting to be a convert.

So I'm anxious to try your recipe now too! Thanks so much for contributing it.
