  1. Lovely no frills soup with a great color.

    rosslare

  2. Nice soup. I used homemade chicken broth and halved the recipe, since I only had 1 lb of squash. I kept the 2 carrots though. I didn't have a blender, just a mini food processor. Was a little messier but not bad. Next time I might add thyme or some other seasoning.

  3. This is a nice, cream soup. Rich flavored. I subbed my own chicken broth for the canned. Thanks for posting.
