Happy- Butternut Squash Soup- Monday!
Hope you all had an amazing weekend! Here in VA we had such wonderful weather, it was just too gorgeous to be inside the house so we went pumpkin picking with the boys and all that good fall activities were happening.
Fall is so great.
I love the beautiful foliage, the trees are amaze me every day. Oh…fall colors!
Today’s soup also has an amazing fall color…pretty yellow.
Have you ever made butternut squash soup? The Panera kind? I fell in love with this soup when I tried it first time and then I needed to replicate it at home.
Such an amazing, easy and healthy comforting soup for fall chilly days.
