This was delicious and I love that it uses plain yogurt instead of fat laden cream, a very tasty healthy recipe! Roasting all the veggies gave it outstanding flavor.

This soup is pretty good. I'm giving it 4 stars instead of five because 1) I've never had squash soup before and don't have anything to compare it to, and 2) I didn't quite follow the recipe exactly. I've made this twice, the first time I only used half a large onion and four garlic gloves b\c two whole onions and a whole head of garlic seemed like way too much. I also added a bit of cilantro like one reviewer recommended and approx. 1/2 cup of half and half. It turned out good but I thought the curry was too strong, and also the roasted garlic didn't . . . ahem, agree with me. The second time I skipped the garlic all together and used half a tsp of curry instead of 1 whole tsp. I also added a dollop of sour cream as a garnish when I served it. I like it better the second time I think. :-)

Really enjoyed this soup, even my brother who thinks anything with a bunch of veggies in it is bad said it was great. I did substitute the coconut milk for the yogurt as other reviewers suggested but I didn't want to waste and put an entire can which is 400ml instead of the 250ml I maybe should have to equal the amount of yogurt... I thought it was a little too much coconut. So I added a little half and half cream I had on hand to even it out a bit. I didn't measure out any of the spices and definitly added more curry and cinnamon! Will make again for sure.

For a variation, I used a butternut and an acorn squash, added a few carrots and a can pumpkin and cayenne pepper. Roasted the vegetables on foil and the clean up was easy. I used a stick blender and it went really fast. I made a large batch and have several servings in the freezer.

I'm on a restricted diet so I had to change the yogurt to 1% cottage cheese, left out the brown sugar and it still turned out amazing! I hope to make this for my friends as is for a harvest party because I can tell it will be even better.

This didn't taste very good to me. I think the oregano and cinnamon together didn't taste right. I added coconut milk to it and it still wasn't to good.

This was my second try at butternut soup. The roasting adds all the flavor, and super easy to make. With mine I omitted the sugar and oregano, and increased the curry to 2 tsp(mild). I also used one can of condensed stock (284ml) with one can water and it was thin enough. Great base recipe to play with!

I loved this recipe and the only change I made was i used chicken broth as that is what I had in the house. My husband who is very picky loved it. I also found it freezes great thaw heat and add cream. This is a keeper thanks for posting

Excellent recipe. The curry and cinnamon give the flavour depth without making it too rich, which is something I find with many squash soups. I left the brown sugar out, as my husband and I are "eating clean," and my mother-in-law said it was the best soup she's tasted. Very healthy and delicious-a great combo for nourishment!

I made a few changes to this recipe. It has now become a favorite both of my family and at work! I used 2 medium butternut squash instead of 1. It gives a bit more volume for lunches or dinner the next night. I roasted a 2 in. piece of fresh ginger with the garlic. Instead of just using the 6 cups of broth I combined 2 cups of broth slowly while blening the squash, then while heating the soup with the seasonings I added 1 cup of heavy cream (it's MUCH better with a few extra calories) and 1 cup of coconut milk. I added about 2 cups more broth (I used chicken instead of vegetable) if the soup was a bit too thick. I felt that the brown sugar was not necessary so Idon't use it. I top the soup with light sour cream and finely chopped basil. I promise, this is the BEST.

Excellent flavor! One suggestion - I turn the squash halves flesh side down and peel off the skin. Much easier than trying to scoop out every bit of the delicious flesh.

Followed the recipe exactly, but felt that there were too many other flavors overpowering the squash. In the future, I'd cut back on garlic and onion, and leave out the cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar.

Sorry, but I didn't like the taste of this soup. The seasonings didn't work together at all. I really wanted to like it since I was planning on serving it to my dinner guests, but in the end had to toss it. I thought the cinnamon was too overpowering, and should not have been used with the curry powder. I tried using the yogurt, but didn't like that tart flavor at all; using cream was better, but still not rich enough. I've had better butternut squash soup recipes. I won't make this again. Also, it was too thin. Should not have used all that broth. If you do make this soup, do various taste tests using the suggested seasonings one at a time.

I made the changes suggested by the reviewer 'exterra' and the soup was incredible. If the original recipe included his changes my rating would undoubtedly be 5 stars. Definitely a keeper
