Last night I tried a new recipe for a soup that I saw on Studio 5 here at work. When they made it here, the fresh herbs in it smelled so fantastic that I couldn't resist trying it. I tried it and it was so good I had to make it for my family. I figured they would love it. There is nothing better than a good homemade soup on a cold winter day.
The recipe calls for butternut squash, apples, pears and onions. It has fresh herbs and a little half and half too. It was delicious. Although I did have to substitute dried herbs for the fresh herbs because I couldn't find them at the grocery store. I do recommend using fresh herbs if you possibly can. The fresh herbs are heavenly in this soup.
Here is the recipe:Butternut Harvest Bisque
The picture on the website above isn't quite right. It is a bit smoother than how mine turned out. I guess I didn't puree it quite as much as they did for the picture.
While I was making the soup, Travis kept calling it my "Fruit Soup". He thought it was a strange combination for a soup.
I made homemade biscuits to go with the soup to round off the meal. My family did like the soup, and the biscuits, but they felt like they were missing the main course because I didn't have meat in the soup. They felt like I had made 2 side dishes for dinner, and thought they were hungry a couple of hours later. So next time I make it, I'll grill some chicken breasts with it or something.

Yummy! It sounds good! I wish we were closer too, then I could have tried some of your soup!!
Oh, that sounds divine! I'm gonna have to hit the store (we only have 1 store here) & see if this little town has pears & squash in their produce section. If not, I may have to wait until I go to a real town... Either way, you made my stomach growl!
Mmmm! I'm a huge fan of soup. This looks like something I will have to try out for myself!
