It’s soup season. I enjoy making a hearty soup during the cooler months, especially ones that I can throw in my beloved slow cooker.

One of my favorite new soups is bean & butternut. I just throw it all in the slow cooker and we have a hearty meal for supper. It's wonderful.

I made this delicious Bean and Butternut Squash Soup for my gang. It was quite tasty and it hit the spot on that cold, brisk evening.

I served the Bean and Butternut Squash Soup with a salad and a loaf of bread. Everyone was completely satisfied. I froze the remainder Bean and Butternut Squash Soup for an upcoming lunch.

It is seriously so simple, but hearty and tasty. You can prepare all the ingredients ahead of time and freeze them except for the broth and water. On cooking day, throw the frozen items all in the slow cooker with the broth and water.

Easy peasy, huh?
