How is the weather where you are? It is that time of year when the weather can never seem to make up its mind. This past weekend, it was a little chilly in Charleston, but it has warmed up once again. However, this has not stopped my soup cravings!! Sunday, I showed you the first recipe I tried from Jessica Seinfeld’s Double Delicious, Good Simple Food for Busy, Complicated Lives cookbook(disclaimer: we received the cookbook for free from the publisher). Monday night, I gave a second recipe a go: Dairy Free Butternut Squash & Tomato soup:
It was SUPER easy to make (minus cutting up the darn butternut squash):
I used this fun can of Hunt’s diced tomatoes in my version:
The result (got to love that dark winter-esque lighting):
Fabulous! The soup is SO yummy and filling. I crumbled a few tortilla chips on top and had a side of toast and fruit.
I searched a little online to find a similar recipe to share with you and couldn’t find anything exactly like it. However, I did find this other awesome Vegan Butternut Squash Tomato Soup recipe.

That soup combo sounds delish - I love both flavors!
ReplyDeleteHaha, yeah, I HATE cutting squash!
ReplyDeleteBut the soup looks like it was totally worth it ; )
What a great soup idea! Sounds delish. And aren't bnut squashes the WORST to cut up?? So worth it though..... :)
ReplyDeleteI have Jessica Seinfelds first book, and her deviled eggs with cauliflower puree are a mainstay in my house! I have made them over and over again, and no one ever suspects cauliflower puree plays such a big roll in the yolk mixture! This soup sounds wonderful....and I have been really into cream soups these days, I am putting it on the list to be made! Do you happen to have the nutritional stats for it? are they listed on the recipe in the book? I would love to know if you have that info available! :)
ReplyDeleteSquash is a pain to cut, it takes me forever! They need squash cutters. :)
ReplyDeleteSoup looks great!
Rainy here :( I've never thought to combine butternut squash and tomato but the combo sounds great!
ReplyDeleteit's so nasty here lately! monday it hailed, yesterday it was freezing, today it's rained a little, it's suppppposed to get nice this weekend but we'll see! i'm coming to charleston to get your weather thank you!
ReplyDeletei have a bnut squash in the garage that i am procrastinating cutting open just because it's a BEAST to do!
i bet the flavs of the tomato and butternut were extra delicious together :)
i've got nothin going on this week other then work and school (which i'm probably skipping haha) but i need to get a jumpstart on my final papers so i'll prob crack into that!
i have her first cookbook and it too has some good recipes... but this sounds wonderful!! thanks for sharing, so now I need to go get some squash
ReplyDeleteYum! I love dishes like that. Peeling and chopping a butternut squash has to be right up there with the top culinary pains in the a$$ :-) But they're worth it in the end!
ReplyDeletemmm perhaps i will use this recipe when i tackle my next b squash!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE butternut squash soup, but I think I'd love it even more with tomato. Looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteSues
Ooh that sounds good!
ReplyDeleteThe weather here is a little bipolar. It's supposed to reach 74 here in IL!!
Love butternut squash soup - actually I love butternut squash in any form at the moment! Swoon.
ReplyDeleteYUM! you know I love soups! Tomato + butternut squash is like combining my two favorite soups!
ReplyDeleteI was just looking at the cookbook at Target today on my lunch break. Looks yummy. I have more cookbooks that I know what to do with though.
ReplyDeleteIt's been warm, then cold here too. Warm weather doesn't deter my soup cravings either! :) Love it. This one sounds like a great combo of flavors!
ReplyDeleteCutting up the squash is always the worst part of any squash recipe! Sometimes I cheat and buy it pre cubed from Trader Joes :).
ReplyDeleteIsn't that the beast of it? So many recipes that involve winter squash are super easy, but cutting the darn thing in the first place, ugh! That is when I am so glad for my good knives, and even then it's not easy. Sometimes it's so tempting to buy the pre-cubed stuff...
ReplyDeleteMmm.. two of my favorite soups combined into one?! Amazing :)
ReplyDeleteoh that soup looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteYUMMM this looks so comforting and perfect for the colder weather! I think b-nut squash is one of my favorite things to have in soup form!!!
ReplyDeleteYum! Cutting up a b-nut squash IS a pain, but usually worth it in the end:)
ReplyDeleteSoup queen :D Never thought to combine butternut w/ tomato in a soup like this, but it sounds really good! Ugh butternut squashies can be such a pain to prep - agreed!
ReplyDeleteI can't get enough soup lately! Love this one!
ReplyDeleteoh how yummy! i love anything with butternut squash!
ReplyDeleteI am obsessed with soup lately and definitely think I need to try this one out!
ReplyDeletexo
Butternut squash tomato soup sounds fab, I'll have to get to the library to see if they carry that book so I can borrow it for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteThat squash is huge! I love a good bsquash soup, and the tomato adds such an interesting twist. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeletei have been OBSESSED with soup lately, probably because the weather is getting colder. there is just nothing that sounds better than slurping up a warm bowl of lovely :)
ReplyDeleteLove the sounds of that soup and the fact that is looks easy to make, yet flavorful. I can't wait for my soup cooking class!! :-)
