Butternut Squash Soup

This soup really brings the comfort of fall but the ease of a sheet pan meal. If you can chop and use your blender (real or immersion) this soup will be your new go to. 

Why This Recipe Works for Blood Sugar Balance

This soup is higher in protein than typical butternut squash soups because it incorporates collagen peptides and cottage cheese, both of which are excellent sources of protein.

Collagen peptides add protein without affecting the flavor or texture, while cottage cheese provides both creaminess and a protein boost. These additions, along with the bone broth base, create a soup that's not only hearty and filling but also much richer in protein compared to traditional versions.
