Apple Squash Soup

It doesn't get much easier than this easy apple squash soup. With ingredients from our pantry and freezer and only 15-20 minutes of cooking time, we can make this soup at a moment's notice.

With butternut squash, sweet potatoes, and applesauce as the main ingredients, it is hearty and delicious. I like to serve it with crusty bread or dinner rolls. You really don't need anything else!
