Every fall I am drawn to all of the beautiful squash options that present themselves. I like them roasted, in soups, mashed…you name it, I enjoy it! There are also so many seasoning options…salt and pepper with onions and apples and butter or the addition of the warm spices of cinnamon, clove and nutmeg…all have their merits
For this soup I went with the warming spices…and I used a chicken stock base. I’m always looking for ways to get more bone broth into our meals since I make it almost every week. So, this time I incorporated it into our soup and it was a good call! So good!
Here is what I did:
