    Great flavor. I actually sweated the onions with some whole garlic cloves before adding the other ingrediants and then I put a tablespoon of non-fat plain yogurt into the bowl of soup. Even my "taste-challenged BF" liked this dish. Great for cold winter nights. - 11/15/08

    Very good! The only thing I do differently is that I roast the squash, apples and onions at 425 for 45 minutes and then pour into the stock. - 10/1/10

    I also added carrots and celery. I was being lazy to I used a 12 oz. boxed of frozen pre-cooked butternut squash, which worked great. - 4/28/10

    This is a great recipe! Delicious soup & I also use it over meat or vegetables.....definately healthier than gravies or sauces. Good way to get extra veggies in your meals. This is a keeper for sure! - 10/5/08

    I hadn't thought of using it as a sauce and you are so right, it would be good for veggies. I wonder about putting it on pasta....I may try that this week. Thanks for the tip.
