    I decided to roast the butternut with fresh thyme before adding to the stock. Gives it an awesome flavor!
    This is one of my favourite soups!

    I made this for dinner tonight, and the basic recipe is good but I felt like it needed more flavor. I added cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice and just a pinch of sugar substitute. - 10/17/10

    I thought I would have to add more spices, but I carmelized the onion first in a tablespoon of olive oil and that gave the soup enough savory flavor that it was just perfect.
    Also, I used only 4 cups of chicken broth and 2 cups of water.
    Super easy and tasty!

    This is a great basic recipe. I like a bit more spice so I added some allspice and roated the squash orior to making the soup. It is all good! - 10/16/12
