I had a bag of carrots in the fridge that I was supposed to use to make a soup, but I hadn’t gotten around to it yet. I am normally not a big fan of carrots, unless I am using them to dip into homemade hummus. Hmmmm, dipping carrots into hummus, I wonder if I can make carrots into a dip? Of course I can! Anything is possible, especially when you have a large collection of cooking magazines to browse through 🙂
I find something very comforting about roasted vegetables. I love how a hearty, meaty vegetable turns soft and luxurious when it has been roasted to perfection in the oven. It really represents the winter months when you turn on your oven and find yourself roasting or baking most of your meals.
I was browsing around on Strawberry Ginger’s blog and stumbled across her recipe for Root Vegetable & Apple Soup. My first reaction was Yummy! Then I got thinking about making my own version of a Butternut Squash Soup.
