I love winter squash, but will be the first to admit that I’m a complete rookie at preparing them. Not that they are hard to cook, most squash variety you can bake, grill, steam, even microwave, but for some reason they intimidate me. I found the recipe below for butternut squash bisque and had to [...]
When I heard we were doing a soup series, I immediately knew I wanted to try out a bean and bacon soup. This smoky and hearty duo has always been one of my favorites but something I hadn’t tackled yet, so I liked the challenge. I wasn’t able to find anything to my liking in [...]
The Tale of a Pumpkin and 12 Popovers I must have had a similar “fall is in the air” feeling a few years ago when I first found this recipe on the Internet. I typed in “pumpkin soup” and was immediately attracted to the pumpkin and curry flavor combination – not to mention the ease [...]

I’ve been on a discovery kick lately, trying to familiarize myself with vegetables that I don’t usually incorporate into my diet.
