There’s nothing more comforting than a warm bowl of soup—especially when that bowl is actually warm, crusty sourdough bread! Not just any soup will do, though—this sweet and savory butternut squash soup happens to be extra special. It’s made with a base of flavorful vegetable broth and creamy milk, and it’s chock-full of butternut squash, sweet potatoes, and sage. We wouldn’t leave you hanging without something to dunk into your soup, either: Save the bread you scoop out of the bowl for dipping! The best part? All you have to do is heat it up and dig right in! One slurp will have you bowled over. Nutrition values are representative of a 1/2 bundle serving

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Place bag in pot; cook for 20 minutes, then carefully remove. (Caution: Bag will be very hot.) Cut one corner with scissors before serving.

2

MICROWAVE ALTERNATIVE: Cut one corner of the bag; pour soup into a microwave-safe container. (Do not microwave in cup.) Cover loosely with microwave-safe plastic wrap or a paper towel. Microwave on high, stirring halfway through, 5-6 minutes. (Caution: Container and soup will be very hot.)

3

BREAD BOWL: Adjust rack to middle position and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut a 2-4-inch circle into the top of the loaf and remove. Scoop out the inside of the bread to create a bowl. Brush inside of bread bowl with 1 TBSP olive oil or melted butter; bake on middle rack until lightly toasted and warmed through, 7-8 minutes.

Review summary

Updated on Mar 2026
  • Flavor: Some found the soup tasty with a slight kick, while others thought it needed more depth and seasoning. Add salt or extra herbs to boost flavor 🍲.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and simple to prepare. Warming the soup and toasting the bread bowl made for an easy, wholesome meal.
  • Suggestions: Consider using an immersion blender for smoother texture. Try adding a dollop of sour cream for extra richness.
  • Leftovers: The soup freezes well. Thaw and reheat slowly on the stovetop for best results.
  • Bread bowl: Toast the bread bowl in the oven or air fryer for 4-5 minutes to enhance crispiness and flavor.
