Kabocha Miso Soup

What's one of my most favorite things about fall? Winter squash is in season! I love all the different varieties, whether it's butternut or acorn or even delicata. The heartiness of winter squashes is perfect for the cold weather (assuming you do not live in Arizona...).

Believe it or not, I had never had kabocha squash until I this fall. Boy, have I been missing out! I must say that kabocha squash is now my FAVORITE winter squash. It has the heartiness of butternut squash but is a bit less starchy. Therefore meaning that kabocha squash is a great choice if you are watching your carbs or overall calories.
