Ingredients
12 shiitake mushrooms (fresh or dried), caps separated but not discarded
1 small onion, roughly chopped (peels ok!)

Winter squash varieties were on sale recently so I stocked up. I didn’t have enough sweet potatoes to make a big batch of this like I usually would, so instead I still cooked 3 butternut squash but made 1.5 into the soup and froze the rest of the cooked flesh to be used later. I find roasting them halved & scooping out the flesh is less time & energy then peeling and chopping!
I also roasted the squash seeds with some olive oil and salt – you know they’re done when they start popping! I had them as a snack but could also be a topping for your soup.
This roasted butternut squash and sweet potato recipe is the perfect dish for fall and winter. It’s got plenty of spice to warm you up, but can also be tweaked to include flavors you love!
