Every Friday morning I go to the Calgary Farmers Market and see what is available. I am a big fan of eating seasonally and find what produce I pick up at the market dictates what we will eat for the week.
Today I saw an abundance of squashes at the market and decided to make a butternut squash soup.
All the ingredients for this vegetarian red curry soup I picked up at the market. Well everything except the red curry paste. I already had that in my pantry.
I love that this soup only takes 30 minutes to make. Perfect on busy evenings when you do not have a lot of time to get a meal together for your family.
