Simple, wholesome, comforting, and delicious! Those are some of the words I use to describe this wonderful bowl of my butternut squash! I love butternut squash and I grow it in my garden most years. It has a similar taste to sweet potato, only milder. It is full of Vitamin A and C and just so delicious! I love to dice it and saute it, mash it like mashed potatoes and I love it made into this creamy soup!
Ingredients:
- 1 butternut squash, peeled and diced
- 2 golden potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 onion, diced
- 32 oz. chicken broth
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 T butter
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Saute all the veggies in the butter in a large pot until they are softened. Pour in the chicken broth. Simmer until the veggies are very soft. Blend it all in the food processor or blender. This will probably take two batches. Pour it all back into the pot. Turn off heat, and pour in the half and half. Salt and pepper to taste.  This is a delicious  fall treat! Enjoy!
