BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND TURNIP GREEN SOUP

Y'all, this is so good. With a hint of spice and Creole flavor, the butternut squash adds a little sweet to the turnip greens balancing the bitter and sweet. The andouille smoked sausage adds both warmth and flavor to the dish.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND TURNIP SOUP



Butternut Squash and Turnip Soup image

This is an original recipe, created from the need to do something with a squash and some turnips before they expired. It makes quite a few servings, so if desired, it can be halved, and a smaller squash (i.e. acorn squash) can be used.
