This was good. DH liked too. For the squash I used Pureed Squash Butternut, Acorn Any Hard Winter Squash! Pureed Squash Butternut, Acorn Any Hard Winter Squash! as it was much easier than pealing and cutting up! I was lacking a carrot & butter so I replaced them with a hard pear and used compleatly olive oil. I used 1 cup and a bit (not 1/2c) apple juice as I believe it would be too strong an apple juice flavor. Didn't have broth so I added a garlic clove to the onions and additional salt to the water. Used brown sugar but would be very good with maple syrup. Used rice milk in replacement of much of the water instead of cream (milk allergy) was still good served warm only garnished with nutmeg. Sure could make this again

    This is outstanding! The only additions/ changes I made was adding a dash of ground ginger, 1/2 t brown sugar, nutmeg in the soup not as garnich and chicken broth. I also added a splash of brandy at serving. I would highly recommend the brandy. It seemed to cut down on the natural sweetness of the soup. A real winner here. Thanks Rita! We loved it!

    A truly outstanding soup, it filled the entire house with the aroma of Fall. I used oil, butter and heavy cream quite sparingly, and it was still wonderful. To give it a little more body, you may want to make sure your squash is on the large side or use two. I opted for adding maple syrup we recently picked up from the Neil and Rita Rowat orchard in Ontario, CAN (awesome stuff). Next time I will include yogurt garnish and the cream sherry. BF made sure to tell me to keep this one. So, I think I just found a wonderful side dish for our upcoming Thanksgiving feast! Thanks so much Rita! Update - Made for Thanksgiving, even tastier than it was a few weeks ago. Decreasing the liquid to squash ratio made it nice and thick too. Really wonderful. Forgot to buy cream sherry, maybe next time!

    Warming and filling soup-I love the creaminess and warm spices subtly sweetened with syrup! I used chicken broth, but think it would be better with veggie broth. I also added extra apples. A great fall recipe; thanks Rita!
