Butternut Squash Soup

White bowl of soup with bread

There is food that nourishes your body, and then there is food that TAKES CARE OF YOU. I’m talking comfort food that is so cozy, so bone-warmingly delicious and relaxing that it’s more of an experience than it is food. I put this butternut squash soup in the latter category. It is not just a soup; it is a revitalizing potion for use in the cold, dreary dark months ahead. Best of all, it’s pretty damned easy to make. Pull up a chair and have a bowl with me, will you?
