You can save cooking time by slicing your vegetables very thinly -- it'll only take about 10 minutes this way, but cutting will take longer, your choice. This was an OK base, I made the following changes: I used sweet potatoes instead of white No celery halfway during the browning, I threw in a large tablespoon of garlic and a teaspoon of ginger After blending, mix in a couple dashes of cinnamon and other herbs to taste. I found that if you don't mind a thick, baby food like consistency, you'll have tons of flavor without having to add cheese or sour cream. It's delicious and super healthy.

I can't believe people who said this was tasteless! This was sooo easy and sooo delicious. I did NOT roast the squash before hand like some suggested, I cubed and browned it like the recipe called for, it only took minutes. I DID add celery seed instead of celery (didn't have any), a couple garlic cloves, and cinnamon. I also like my soup on the sweet side but did not like previous suggestions of using brown sugar...so drew inspiration from another squash soup recipe on this site and added one cubed apple with the veggies and a couple ounces apple juice with the stock. YUM YUM! I can imagine it will be good with the dollop of sour cream, but it certainly doesn't need it. I am glad to find a cream-free squash soup. I might sprinkle some slivered almonds on top when I serve it for supper later (had a taste before hand!!) Happy concocting!

Oh this soup is so good! Even if you forget the onion like I did! :) I put in a bit of onion powder at the end and that worked fine. I used a sweet potato instead of regular, and also added a bit of brown sugar because I like it a little sweet, but even without it it was still absolutely delicious! I don't understand how a couple people said it was tasteless!

Was OK, but I've had better Squash soups. It definitely was easy though and it was 'good', just not the best there is.

My boyfriend thought this would not be good because of the sound and look of it. Once made he loved it. I added a littel heavy whipping cream and skipped the celery. Also pureed it in the pot didnt want the mess. It was great will make it again. The pot was empty

I thought this was a very nice soup. I thought the chicken flavor was a little too strong, so next time I will try it with vegetable broth instead. I also added a dash of cayenne pepper which gave it a nice warmth.

I expected a lot more from this recipe. I omitted the celery, only used 1 potato, added garlic, a pinch of curry and even a pinch of cayenne and still bland!

This was so easy and low in fat. My family & friends loved it. I just added a little dash of Nutmeg and cayenne red pepper for a little kick. I also baked the Squash before since I was planning on making something else with the squash. I would totally recommend this recipe.

Tried this tonight and it was really good. I did add 1/4 teas. curry powder as someone had suggested and I did bake the squash in a 350 oven for 50 or so minutes. Other than that I followed the recipe and it was velvety smooth and delicious. Will definitely make again. Thanks, Kris.

Yum! This is great. Do not omit the celery, just cut it small. The mirepoix makes it so delicious. Just cook it through and cut it small. yum. I served with a dollop of sour cream.

This recipe offered a great start, but I also made some modifications to give it more flavor. First off I had to use celeriac since I didn't have celery...it was my first time using this root (got it from our farm co-op) and I think it worked really add to add flavor and consistency and it blended very nicely. I also put in some carrots and a couple of cloves of garlic. For spices I added a half a spoon of cumin seeds, a couple of teaspoons of curry powder, paprika, and a splash of caribbean hot sauce. Once blended, I added half and half and a little brown sugar. It turned out absolutely delicious and I will probably serve this again during the holidays.

Awesome, with changes suggested by previous reviewers: curry powder, sour cream (a must), something just a little bit spicy (I added white pepper). I used an acorn squash b/c that's what I had. I have been giving my winter squash from the CSA away to friends b/c I didn't think it could be good (other than for baby food), but this recipe made a believer out of me that winter squash makes an amazing soup! I found a roasted winter squash seed (like roasted pumpkin seeds) recipe on this site and made those last night, too!

I wanted to make this recipe with some leftover ingredients from a butternut squash risotto recipe. So I added sage and parmesan cheese - it was really delish!

This recipe was great! One of the best soups Ive ever made :) I made the following changes: - bake an entire squash for one hour at 400 C - Add a large carton of stock to the pot and add 4 cloves of garlic, curry powder and cinnamon along with 3 carrots chopped and 2 potatoes cubed. - Peel the squash once cooled, add to pot and mash. It turned out perfect without pureeing it. - Have with a dollop of sourcream. Amazing!
