Creamy Butternut Squash Soup
By: Club House Kitchens
Made With:
As soon as the chilly season arrives, you'll love to cozy up with a bowl of warm, creamy butternut squash soup. Sauté onions, squash and apples in butter before stirring in chicken broth and orange juice. To season the soup and deepen the flavour even more, stir in warm cinnamon and ginger. While this soup is delicious on its own, it's even better topped dried cranberries, pepitas and crumbled feta or try it with a dollop of sour cream and chopped pecans. We love serving this scrumptious butternut squash soup with anything from a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch or dinner, to typical Thanksgiving fare like herb roasted turkey, green bean casserole and stuffing muffins.
