I love butternut squash soup, but, without a kitchen, I haven’t been able to make my favorite version in ages, and store bought just never lives up (and has a lot of junk in it), so I have pretty much gone without.
That is, until I created my new favorite version out of necessity. You see, I wanted soup, and had just a few things in the fridge, and only currently possess a toaster oven and a hotplate.
Luckily, the ingredients I had on hand went together well, and and my very rudimentary appliances worked out just fine. Necessity is the mother of all invention, you know! This soup is easy, fast, and soup-er tasty! (I know, I have used that joke before, but come on, it’s just too easy!)
