Easy Butternut Squash Soup

Some days there just isn’t time to cook and this is one of my favorite, easy Butternut Squash Soup products available on the market.

Simple and Quick Meals

I love to cook but there are some days that it just doesn’t happen. There are either too many activities going on that day, busy work schedules or I just plain don’t feel like it.

For days like that, I rely on simple and quick meal ideas that can be pulled together easily. Something pre-packaged, that the whole family loves, is budget friendly and on the “healthy-ish” side of things.

Store Bought Soup

This Butternut Squash Soup from Trader Joe’s is one of my favorite items to keep stocked in the pantry.

I really want to make my own butternut squash soup from scratch soon, but until then this soup is my stand by. It takes just minutes to reheat on the stove and is so creamy it’s amazing! The best part (for me) is that it doesn’t contain any cream.

While the sodium could be a bit lower, overall it’s pretty “healthy” and my family loves it.

I like to add a dollop of greek yogurt and some chives on top.

Serving Suggestions

To make this a meal, I would typically serve it with a big, veggie filled salad. The kind of salad filled with tons of vegetables, nuts like almonds or pistachios, dried fruit like cranberries, pomegranate seeds, sunflower seeds, avocado, a little feta cheese, etc.

Next week I’m sharing a Chopped Kale Salad that goes perfect with this soup for a quick lunch idea.
