I often put parmesan rinds into chicken stock to make it taste even richer, but I haven’t put parmesan into my squash soup. Good idea!
Wow, that looks like a very quick recipe. Something very different! Thank you so much!
First time ever made or tasted squash soup. After my palate adapted to the soup, I actually enjoyed it, can’t say the same for my parents with whom I share soups.
This recipe is amazing! I get rave reviews every time I made this! I usually made this on the stovetop and the chickpeas are delish!! thanks for sharing
That is great to hear! I am so glad that everyone loved it! Thanks so much for sharing! XOXO
Can you make it without a slow cooker
Yes, you can make this in a dutch oven pot over the stove top.
