Greetings
Soup Lovers!
Celebrate the
season with this nourishing plant-based butternut squash, D'Anjou red pear and ginger
soup. Its delightful combination of tangy and creamy flavors makes it the perfect
autumn dish.
This
recipe features a harmonious blend of sweet roasted pears and butternut squash,
pureed to a velvety consistency. The soup is beautifully topped with a textural
contrast of pistachios and the finishing touch of extra virgin olive
oil, resulting in a sensational flavor. It's amazing!
