Black Eyed Beans Chorizo and Butternut Squash Soup Recipe

So, autumn officially starts in 4 days.

Although in my Sierra Leonean bones and Suffolk kitchen it pretty much started in mid August.

Logs gathered and split, fires lit and the recipe ideas book filled with a gazillion soup recipe ideas for the coming colder months. Plus all the testing out too. Food blogging fun.

If you go through my soup ideas list, you would be able to tell that I have a serious orange vegetable obsession because the first 5 soups all have butternut squash or pumpkin with notes about sweet potato substitutions. So I figured that starting with butternut squash soup was the way to go.

Chorizo Soup Recipe @ Recipes From A Pantry

This has got everything that you need for a hearty soup, creamy butternut squash balanced by a little tartness from the tomatoes, warming spices from the chorizo, cinnamon and smoky paprika and some protein bulk from the black eyed beans.

It is also the sort of soup that tastes better a few days later. Especially so, when you come home after a long long day, heat up a large bowl, curl up with an equally large spoon in a warm corner with a little itty bit of warm buttered bread.
