Excited about this one b/c it is so basic—I already had all of the ingredients except chicken stock, so I substituted a half and half mixture of beef stock and water. Quartered and roasted the squash before boiling. Super creamy and love the spicy kick! Will make again for sure. Top w/fresh herbs! - 12/8/11
