Let me first say that gourds and squash are healthy and versatile. Even better, gourds and squash are fairly inexpensive and go a long way in a dish. I usually pay $4 for a large butternut squash. So in today’s day of cost-cutting and trying to find ways to eat healthy yet keeping your grocery bill down, squash just seems to make sense. I thought I would post two of my favorite squash soup recipes. So enjoy! I should be posting some more soon. Also be sure to check out some of my gourd photography from last year – that is, if you’re into gourds like I am. They’re all too cute with their unique little bumps and curls.
