butternut soup recipe

simple, easy, and decadent butternut squash soup. Easy to make for even the beginning cook!This is the most basic butternut soup recipe I know. I realize that for some it is too basic.  But, you can always jazz it up if you like. I am a big believer, though, that when learning to cook you should know the basic recipe BEFORE the fancy pants one.

I don’t peel and dice the butternut squash. Instead, I have everything in one giant pot. gasp! .And…I have only 9 ingredients…that includes the salt! But, this is the truest, most simple Butternut Soup recipe I know. (If you have other great ones…shoot them my way!

One-Pot Sweet Potato Chili Recipe

This sweet potato chili recipe is hearty, cozy, fresh, and simple. Easy to make and gets on the table quickly.

Happy happy day, lovelies! Today I’m passing to you the recipe for my one-pot ( I use my worn-out dutch oven) sweet potato chili. This chili is a family favorite that makes it to the menu rotation at least twice a month. Mostly at the request of Katie, to be honest. That girl ADORES this chili recipe. 

Truly, she can’t be blamed. This chili is sweet and spicy, warm and fresh, and chock full of nutrients that make your body feel taken care of. It also takes only a little over half an hour to make. Fast, fresh and simple. It reminds me of my grandma’s chili but with a fresh, new update. Kid’s love the mild sweetness of sweet potatoes (have you tried sweet potato fries? kids love them!) and YOU’ll love the nutrients of sweet potatoes.

I prefer to use grass-fed ground beef in this chili recipe; but I’ve successfully used ground turkey, chicken, chuck, and even gone meatless without losing any of the yummy flavors. Adjust this recipe to your families needs and tastes… it will still be delicious!

I serve this chili with sliced avocado, sour cream, and cilantro every time. In my opinion, the toppings are mandatory. The silky avocado, tangy sour cream, and flavorful cilantro are the PERFECT topping to this chili. 

Tip:

Having a chili “topping bar” is the best way to get kids to gobble up any chili recipe. Make the basic recipe and set out bowls of toppings. They add their favorites and YOU don’t have to worry about picky eaters-score!
