A read of the ingredient list—flavorful apples, creamy butternut squash, yellow onion, and bacon—do not do justice to the delicate balance of sweet and savory autumn flavors and the comforting, rich texture that this butternut squash soup recipe offers.

Locally grown delicata squash is roasted with maple syrup and cinnamon, then topped with jewel-like pomegranate arils, dried cranberries, crunchy nuts and creamy goat cheese. A colorful fall side dish that’s as delicious as it is beautiful!
