Soup is like the green juice of the winter. It’s a great way to pack a ton of veggies into one meal.
It’s also a major time saver. You can make a huge batch on Sunday night to last you the whole week. Pair it with crackers for a snack or with lean protein for a full meal.
Some tasty topping ideas for this soup: red pepper flakes, parmesan cheese or a dollop of plain greek yogurt.
Have a great week!

Soup is one of my most favorite things to make for all the reasons you mentioned. I love that we get a ton of veggies in at one serving and my kids love it! I’ve never thought of mixing sweet potato and butternut squash together in a soup–I’ll have to give it a try! I just made a really delicious cauliflower and leek soup last night that I’m planning on posting about this week. Definitely making it again soon!

This looks delish! I’ve never made soup, but have always wanted to try. I love anything with butternut squash and sweet potatoes, so this might be a top contender. Happy Monday!

Yummy and souper healthy! I do something similar but don’t puree it. This is a nice change.
