Warm Up With This Creamy and Comforting Butternut Squash Soup Recipe

When it comes to weeknight dinners, I'm an unabashed soup fan. Sure, it might take slightly longer to simmer up than a pot of pasta, but by and large it's a hands-off affair, and few foods soothe the soul better after a hectic day.

Smooth, creamy (without being heavy), and subtly sweet, this iteration will be entering my rotation throughout the fall and winter months, and I encourage you to do the same.

Like many pureed soups, this seasonal soup gets even better with age, and is therefore an excellent candidate for leftovers — I usually put mine in a thermos to enjoy for lunch all week long.
