I’m over the cold already.  What- too soon? It’s true.  I love fall, but I’m a sucker for 80 degrees and sunny all day, everyday.  And I swear, the cold just hits different the first time you feel it- 46 degrees this morning? That’s basically freezing in my book.  Luckily, I’ve found the way I’ll be warming my soul all winter long…sitting by my parent’s epic fireplace with a bowl of this Butternut Squash and Apple Soup on my lap.

I’m not usually too crazy for soup, but this one is a game changer! So much so, I’ve already made it three times this season…and fall only started three weeks ago.  I’m telling you, it’s THAT good.  Plus, it’s loaded with micronutrients from the roasted squash and carrots, a ton of vitamin C and fiber from the apples, and just the right amount of spice from the curry powder.  While the squash makes the soup thick and creamy by itself, thinning it with coconut milk creates a velvety smooth finish, and complements the sweetness from the apples.

I’m simply obsessed with this Butternut Squash and Apple Soup, and already know it’s going to be on repeat for the next four months.  It’s perfect blend of sweet and savory flavors makes it the perfect fall comfort food! And while it’s warm and cozy, I HIGHLY recommend topping with cold and creamy goat cheese on top, because it adds the perfect bit of tang with each bite!

As good as this soup is, it does take a bit of prep work- but it makes A LOT of food you can eat for multiple days of easy meals during the week, or can even freeze in batches for a later date. (Plus, most of the “work” is inactive time as the veggies roast and the soup simmers). And if this baby turns you in to a squash obsessed human like me- ha!- be sure to cue up my favorite salad of all time next on your to-do list.  Enjoy!
