★★★★★ Butternut Squash Soup

This soup skirts the line between sweet and savory in the most perfect way. Traditional dessert ingredients like honey, apples and vanilla bean play off the natural sweetness of the squash, while the aromatic onions and vegetable stock keep it grounded in a savory flavor profile.
Swap option: Serving this soup with the warm scent of the toasted aromatics and seasonal pumpkin bowls makes a big impression. But if you're short on time, it will taste just as delicious served in a regular bowl.
