          This soup can be eaten with french bread or any kind of white bread you desired. But I will recommend the  GRILLED  FETA BREAD its fantastic  combination with this smoothie,sweetness, buttery flavor of squash.One thing I love this soup is you can embrace the taste of the curry ,cumin .together with the honey and lemon . Perfect taste, ever for this kind of soup. and again it  is very easy to do.
