    Is there anything more heartening than a cosy bowl of butternut squash soup?
    I don't know how about you, but I am craving soups even more since the weather is getting colder.

    Even now, when I visit my family in Sweden, I ask my Dad to make some delicious creamy potato soup. My Dad is a great cook; he always has been. He loves creating and trying new recipes, and even though he's not vegan, he makes the best vegan recipes. Stays in the family - they say 😀 This potato soup was one of my favourite dishes when I was a small kid. And now it is such a great feeling to have it again. It brings me back to my childhood. I think I have to recreate it and share it with you! Hmm…next recipe? Shall I?


    So yeah, you can tell we absolutely love delicious and healthy soups in autumn, and this butternut squash and carrot soup is our favourite go-to weeknight recipe. It is creamy, nourishing and comes together quickly - perfect for autumn cravings. It is an excellent lunch or dinner idea; it freezes very well and is a great meal prep recipe.
