Butternut Squash Soup
I Looove this soup!!! I made it for Thanksgiving last year and it was a favorite! I have made it several times since, and now it's my favorite! It's one of those soups that you just can't foul up, turns out beautifuly every time. Sometimes you don't have enough cream cheese, or cream... no problem with this recipe. I like to change up the flavor sometimes with curry powder, roasted garlic, or cilantro. Y-U-M!!!!!

West African Peanut Soup
sooo delicious! I didn't add as much peanut butter, I used basmati rice, and threw in some fresh cut green beans. A very good, comforting soup. Not as crazy as it sounds!!! :) :) ;)
