    I had been searching for a good recipe for butternut squash, & was so relieved when I tried this one! I absolutely love it, & my husband admitted it's pretty tasty too! I didn't use as much chicken broth as the recipe calls for, prob. between
    3-3 1/2 cups, I used skim milk, & added some more nutme
