Roasted butternut squash and herb soup
My mother and I have a newfound passion for gardening. We have a couple of fruit trees, some veggies, and most importantly a wonderful spread of herbs. Our rosemary, thyme, and oregano bushes are flourishing, and the combination of those three herbs perfectly blend with the rich, creamy flavors of the butternut squash.
