THIS SOUP IS WARM, CREAMY, AND SCREAMS FALL.
Literally, all you need to do is roast and blend.
We are at the cusp of November, and even though it's still HOT as ever in Singapore, I am missing all things fall.
I'm a New Yorker, and I am craving the change of seasons… Right now I miss the weather, the food, and the clothes!
Roasted squash, a hint of apple, a dash of cinnamon… are you getting the fall vibes??
If you love this recipe, definitely try these too!
