The soup is one of my absolute favorites that I get every. single. time. at Panera during the fall months…. Autumn Squash Soup. If you are not familiar with this soup, you must try it. It is so amazing! It is also Gluten Free which I love! This particular recipe is compiled of several different recipes that I created to make my own. It tastes just like the one at Panera! If you love this recipe don’t forget to pin it HERE.
