Warm up with a bowl of comforting chicken soup with a twist. The sweetness of butternut squash added to this classic not only mixes things up but boosts the nutrition, serving up a dish full of vitamin A, B vitamins, potassium, protein, and fiber.
For those who like butternut squash but struggle with peeling, deseeding, and cutting it up, honeynut squash can be used instead. With a finer texture, it’s easier to cut and cook than butternut, and the roasted skin is edible.
Be sure to let the kids help you measure, add ingredients, and stir before things get too hot!
