Butternut Squash Rosemary Soup

I’m a soup-lover for fall, and I love this time of year. The seasonal vegetables are out of this world, and so easy to make a pot of soup. We love a bowl served with this butternut and endive appetizer (best little bites) and air fryer garlic bread. The ultimate autumn meal!

Real food is simply scrumptious. Today my recipe combines a butternut squash and 2 pears. It’s really that easy, and our daughter created this recipe back in 2016.

In the past, my go-to butternut squash soup recipe has included coconut milk and seared scallops, but this soup has a different spin. We’ve included pears!

Why I love this recipe

• Easy to make: Super easy to make, blend together in the blender (we use our Vitamix), and serve!
• Loaded with flavor: We love the combo of butternut and pears. Add in fresh rosemary and shallots and a splahs of maple syrup!
• All veggie: This recipe is a great vegetarian option, packed with autumn veggies!

More squash meals

We’ve been cooking up a storm with garden squash, making soups, main dishes, crockpot meals, grilling. You name it, squash is so good. I also love my friend Gina’s Zucchini Lasagna.

Also try our Grilled Spaghetti Squash or Delacata Squash Salad.

You also don’t need any fancy-schmancy cooking skills to create a good soup. Just use spices and herbs, stock, and then either veggies or meat or grains. Most combinations, stirred together with peak-season veggies (or in this case, delicious pears), are quite simple and full of flavor.
