Vegan Butternut Squash Soup with Almond Milk
This is a rich and savory vegan butternut squash soup with almond milk recipe to make for lunches during the week or for the beginning of a delicious meal. For added richness, I prefer to roast the squash in the oven for 30 minutes before adding to the soup stock. Other fall squash varieties work well, too, but my favorite is butternut. Garnish soup with fresh parsley.
