I recently did a review of Anna Thomas' new cookbook, "Love Soup." I know I said in my review that the next soup I planned to make was a roasted eggplant and garbanzo bean soup but when Anna Thomas herself left a comment on the post recommending her roasted squash and yam soup with poblano peppers, well, what could I do? I had to try it. Just like the other two soups, it was rich and wonderful. We made it with butternut squash instead of the kabocha or buttercup from the recipe because that's what the coop had. Other than that, and forgetting to drizzle the finished soup with olive oil, we made it "by the book."

I found a Youtube video of Anna Thomas making her roasted turnip and butternut squash soup. This should give you an idea of what one of her soups is like. Because she adds a small blob of mascarpone to each bowl as a garnish - unnecessary I think - the soup as she serves it isn't vegan. You could whip a little tofu cream cheese and add it if you felt the soup needed it, or just serve it as is with the other garnishes.
As it turns out, because of a mailing issue, I just got another copy of the cook book. So, lets have a giveaway! If you leave a comment telling me you want this book, I'll randomly choose a winner and send it off. You have until midnight Oct. 15, to leave a comment.
