Nothing like a creamy curried butternut squash soup for cold winter nights.

Soup in the winter is top. notch. Coming home from a long day of work and heating up a bowl of soup is so happy-making.

This curried butternut squash soup is one I’ve been making for years. Minimal ingredients with maximum flavor. Often I’ll make a double batch of it in the fall and place it into a bunch of ziplock bags, then place those bags into the freezer so I can have the soup all winter long.

It’s perfect topped with crunchy croutons, yogurt, and pomegranate seeds. And also when paired with fuzzy slippers and a warm blanket. And maybe the Bachelor, but you know, that’s just me.
