The veg growing this year wasn't too great. The potatoes grew successfully but I wasn't impressed with the flavour. The tomatoes failed. The yellow courgettes were good. Peas were a limited success as were some of the herbs and flowers. For autumn I planted Jack O' Lantern pumpkin and butternut squash. Neither of these grew but 2 huge marrow-like plants did grow. At first I decided they were marrows and made chutney with the first which worked well but then the other one started turning orange...so I am unsure what this was but made lots of soup with it and served it as a roast vegetable too along with carrots...roasted with honey drizzled on top which worked well too.
Whatever it was, it was nice!

Sometimes we expect something but get something different and in the end, it turns up a nice surprise. Sounds like that's what happened to you. Glad that this vegetable, whatever surprise vegetable it was turned up delicious.
Thanks for stopping by recently, and I hope you and yours have a very happy Thanksgiving! :)
Lovely to come across your blog. My veggies didn't work too well this year either. That soup sounds gorgeous. Catherine x
