The flavors and textures of these elements balance beautifully—and make this Steak Stroganoff even more delicious and satisfying.

This hearty soup is chockfull of winter’s best vegetables. To save time, you can buy peeled chunks of fresh butternut squash in many grocery stores: you’ll need about 20 ounces.
