aii-yii-yii!!!
that’s the funniest one yet!
she forgot the squash!
So, last night I made Butternut Squash Soup. It’s a fave. I chopped onions and garlic and sautéed them in olive oil, then sprinkled in thyme, basil, and bay leaf….dropped in a can of red beans (or chickpeas are good too), half a can of fire-roasted tomatoes, and some water….tossed in a little salt, sugar, and cayenne. I brought it all to a boil then slowed it down to a simmer. Then added chicken sausage—leave this out if you want to keep it vegetarian. When it was done, I threw in a big bunch of fresh spinach leaves to wilt and added a spoon more of olive oil. I stirred then ladled it into a big bowl, sprinkled fresh grated cheese, and finally sat down to savor the soup with sourdough bread and green salad. Yum!
Tonight in the kitchen, I looked over on the counter and saw the squash that I had forgotten to add to last night’s Squash Soup. Aii-yii-yii!!! 🤣
