There is nothing I enjoy more than making a rich wintery soup when it’s rainy and cold outside. This Spicy Winter Butternut Squash Soup recipe is one of my new favorites. Inspired by my recent foray into Portuguese cooking, I used the last of the squash I harvested in the fall to experiment with some new twists on a favorite winter staple. Flavored with Allspice and Aleppo pepper, gives this traditional soup and fun new twist!

I love these simple, healthy dog treats. I use this as my base recipe and add in other ingredients like shredded cheese, coconut shreds, and nutritional yeast. I also like to sup in chicken broth instead of water. So many fun ways to make dog treats.

Light, bright and zesty! The perfect healthy dessert for spring and summer!
