Roasted Butternut Squash Soup | Cook It Up Paleo

My dad loves this soup. I was totally shocked, because he hates squash. Like he will not touch a squash with a ten-foot pole. But he is dipping potato chips in it as I type. Not that I recommend that for health reasons, but still, I have never seen him even consider eating anything orange. So even if your family hates squash, make this soup. You may be pleasantly surprised.

Comments

  2. The instructions say to “toss with butter, salt and pepper.” uuh butter is not listed in the ingredients? The are many areas in life I can make an educated guess, cooking is not one! Could somebody give me some direction- are we talking like 2 tbs or 1/2 cup?

This helps to give it a totally different flavor than if you simply boiled it, and the flavor comes through when you’re eating the finished product. The item that puts this over the top on the flavor meter is the bacon, and this gives the soup a savory taste that you won’t find in many other butternut squash soup recipes. On Paleo you’re allowed to eat bacon and not feel bad about it afterward. […]
