Please, do not be intimidated by your squash, they only think they're tough.
Here is a quick and simple list of what you'll want to do to make your squash cutting simple:
Why am I posting squash cutting directions instead of step by step soup making directions here? Because while this soup is really simple to put together, but, some people find handling a squash intimidating.
I know that when I first ever worked with a squash, I had no clue what I was doing, and desired quick and easy directions to get me through the process. I also felt the same way the first time I cut a mango.
Anyone else?
Some fruits/vegetables/gourds are confusing. This way, you don't have to be confused, and can get down to eating soup a whole lot faster!
The inspiration for this soup basically came from all of the other butternut squash soup recipes I've seen out there. And, also from the fact that I adore noodles and cheesy lasagna.
I have tried many a squash soup and they're all so good, but when I'm really hungry on a cold night I want something really savory and hearty. That's where this heavenly soup comes in!
Let me tell you all why I adore this soup so much for so many reasons. It's just screaming with encouragement for us to all start cooking at home more often.
