Butternut Squash Soup is something I really enjoy eating. It is not a dish I have ever tried making. When I got my Hometown Harvest bag I found a nice sized organic squash tucked inside. Originally I thought, I will chop this up and sauté it with some olive oil and zucchini. My friend however challenged me to step outside my cooking comfort zone and make a soup using my squash.
I always get nervous with a new recipe. If you screw it up then dinner is ruined and if you're a perfectionist like me you feel like you are a terrible person!
Despite the apprehension and fear I was about to waste a beautiful squash I rolled my sleeves up and got cooking.

I think it turned out great! The family loved it and asked for seconds so I would call it a success.
One of the fun things about having Hometown Harvest as a sponsor is I will be pushed to try and create new recipes. I am looking forward to the challenge!

So, I’m afraid to try this because I worry my family wouldn’t like it. I KNOW my parents would love it. Will have to try the next time I know they’re around!
I love butternut squash but don’t like it in a soup. Is that weird? I always roast it though.
I have never tried Butternut squash alone, or in a soup! But this sounds pretty yummy, especially with garlic and onion.
