Roasted Butternut Squash Soup

Fall is in the air...well almost here in Atlanta, as we are still experiencing the last few beautiful days of Indian Summer. It’s that time of the year where the air is crisp, the leaves are falling and colorful root vegetables are fully stocked in the grocers produce section, in preparation for the holiday season.

Abundant in nutritious properties, butternut squash is the most popular vegetable among winter squash varieties. It is composed of many vital nutrients including anti-oxidants and vitamin A. In fact it contains an impressive 354% of the daily value for vitamin-A, a nutrient needed for optimal eye and skin health. With a low number of calories per serving size, dietitians in weight loss programs frequently recommend butternut squash as part of a healthy dietary routine.
