A creamy and comforting soup with just a hint of sweetness. This Sweet Potato and Butternut Squash Soup takes just 30 minutes to make, so you have a healthy and filling meal in a flash. This is an easy take to work lunch, that you can just heat up and add some croutons.
Heat a little oil in a large soup pan and fry the onion, garlic, sweet potato and butternut squash for 5 minutes.
Add the rest of the ingredients and simmer for 25 minutes before blending.
Serve with croutons, parsley and a dollop of Greek yogurt (all optional).

Notes
Try adding a little bit of chilli for some extra flavour and warmth.
If you really want to bring out the flavour of the vegetables, try roasting them first. This will increase the cooking time considerably though.
Want some extra sweetness? Add a carrot too.
Make a Thai version of this by adding some Thai curry paste.
Why not make this in the slow cooker instead? Cook on high for 3 hours.
If you want to make this a bit creamier, then add 100ml of coconut milk just before blending.
Add a little sweetness, and some autumn vibes, to this soup by adding apple. Dice it and cook at the same time as the sweet potato and butternut squash.
