Pureed Sweet Potato with Butternut Squash and Broccoli is a delicious combination. To eat what’s growing during the season is always a great idea, plus there is abundance of it, so it’s economical as well.

Fresh vegetables in season during the month of February

Broccoli, Brussels Sprouts, Butternut Squash, Cauliflower, Cabbage, Collard Greens, Kale, Leek, Potatoes, Sweet Potatoes are fresh and in season during this month. Carrots aren’t as fresh but they are a year-round supermarket staple. Carrots actually have two seasons. There’s a late spring crop as well as a fall crop. The fall harvest goes into cold storage for the winter.

pureed sweet potato butternut squash broccoli soup

I am a big fan of pureeing my soup especially because we have a little one year old that enjoys eating the soup we eat. So I tend to use fresh vegetables, and homemade broth. This soup may be a bit sweeter than other soups that I have made before. This time, I used sweet potato, butternut squash and carrots. The chicken broth, cuts that sweetness but not too much.
