Butternut Squash & Sweet Potato Soup!

I'm absolutely loving this fall weather - the colored leaves, bundling up in scarves and sweaters and early evenings spent relaxing and cuddling with my hubby!

One of my favorite things about the fall is the FOOD! 
I'm an absolute junkie for homemade soup, stew and chili - and all day yesterday all I could think about was whipping up homemade Butternut Squash Soup!
I was able to fill this soup with veggies and sweet potatoes and it came out perfect - creamy, smooth, and filling! 

I personally think it's a great go-to fall dinner recipe! Lucky for you I'm sharing it today for Tasty Tuesday!




Butternut Squash Soup

Ingredients:
4.5 cups butternut squash - peeled and cut
3-4 Large Carrots
2 cups sweet potato - peeled and cut
1 Onion
2 cups Chicken/Veggie broth

Seasoning: 
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon pepper
1/2 tablespoon ground ginger




Wash, peel and chop squash, sweet potato and carrots.
Chop onion.
Add squash, sweet potato, carrots and onion to crock pot.
Pour broth over top of ingredients.
Add desired seasonings to taste.

Set on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours. 

Once ingredients are cooked thoroughly use an immersion blender or strong standing blender and blend into desired creamy texture.

Garnish with additional seasoning, whole wheat croutons or herbs.
Serve warm with side salad and whole wheat roll, if desired.

Enjoy!



What is your favorite thing about the fall?
