Curried Butternut Squash Soup
The thing I love about butternut squash (or any squash for that matter) is that it's virtually indestructable and they last for months. I love that you can harvest one in November and still enjoy it in February. I find it very warm and welcoming to arrive home to a delciously inviting bowl of Curried Squash Soup and a side of bread. We all love it and I find that the addition of the curry gives it more depth and flavor. Sometimes squash soups for me become too monotomous. I find that the blending of these seasonings work nicely and have me looking forward to (gasp) LEFTOVERS!
This isn't a spicy soup so I tend to sprinkle mine with a bit of cayenne pepper. This is a meal our family enjoys throughout the winter. I'll be making this Rosemary Olive Oil bread this weekend with a pot of more soup...any suggestions?
