SPICED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP
"I like making this recipe year round, but it's best in the fall and winter months when butternut squash is in season. I love it because it's hearty and filling, but very healthy as well as easy to make. Serve it with some good crusty bread!" Julie Hession - Las Vegas, Nevada
