Six Ingredient Bacon Butternut Squash Soup

With temperatures dropping quickly in New England, a warm soup is in order.  I have been making this butternut squash soup for a few years now and it’s always a welcome additional to our family dinners in the fall and winter.  Our local farmers market had some butternut squash available and I knew it was another great opportunity to show my toddler another vegetable (even though it’s technically a fruit).  Butternut Squash is a great source of fiber, potassium vitamins A and E.  This soup also pairs well with chopped grilled chicken or sausage, which we often combine.

Quick Tip:

  1. If your local grocery store or market has the butternut squash pre-cut, it’s a huge time saver.
  2. I typically choose a thinner cut bacon since the chopped pieces will cook faster than a thick cut bacon.
