A fall, soup dinner party

{Photo credits: Martha Stewart}

I love hosting seasonal-inspired dinner parties.  In a couple weeks Erik and I are having a fall, soup dinner party but this time we are doing it potluck style.  I invited a few friends over and everyone is bringing a homemade (or semi-homemade) soup.  I'll going to buy mini bowls/cups and we'll have a soup sampler. I haven't decided what soup I'll be making yet but I'm thinking either a white bean chicken chili or a butternut squash/pumpkin soup. 

I also plan to serve a fall cocktail, a caramelized onion tart as an appetizer and homemade bread for lapping up the soup. I think it'll be a filling, fun and cozy evening.  Can't wait!

Recipes/photos shown above:

Pear rosemary cocktail
Caramelized onion and gorgonzola quiche
Pureed butternut squash soup
