    I made this soup yesterday. Very easy to follow instructions. I substituted chorizo sausage for the italian. Gave it a nice spicy kick ! Even reminded me of a tortilla soup I had at a restaurant. In fact, I took some tortilla chips and broke them into pieces into the soup, DELICIOUS ! I would definitely make this again. Nice change for the fall weather. Next time I make it, I may cut down the amount of broth/stock....as we like our soups a little thicker consistency. Overall it's a keeper !

    I found this recipe yesterday and was bound and determined to make it last night. My roommate is vegitarian so i substituted vegetable broth for chicken and kept the sasage seperate. Also my local store did not have butternut squash so i substituted two yellow squash and two sweet potatos. It turned out great and i like that the sasage is still in bigger pieces. Sent the recipe to my mom this morning for her to try

    One way to enhance this is by using eggnog instead of cream!

    We like spicier food and so we used andouille sausage instead of italian but overall a fantastic and easy soup to make. I don't even usually like butternut squash soup (or creamy soups in general because I find it bland and hate the texture. We didn't strain it so there was some chunkiness to it. And this had LOTS of flavor -- loved it!

    My husband is completely anti-squash and he loved this soup. I made it for someone who is ill and needs to eat smooth soups so I pureed it with a hand blender until it was completely smooth. My husband tasted it and asked if we could keep some for ourselves to have for dinner.
    I roasted the squash, peeled and cubed it and roasted it again for a few more minutes - I think this is the key to deeper flavors. Next time I might try spicier sausage, though even the mild sausage gave it more kick than I expected. I skipped the fresh sage garnish just to save time.

    I thought this was pretty average. In spite of all the ingredients, it didn't have a lot of depth of flavor and was really more a "Sausage Soup," with an unappeallig texture of little bits of grainy sausage floating through which totally overwhelmed the butternut sqaush.

    I am typing it as I am sitting eating the leftovers (one plus - it makes a LOT, but it's just kind of OK and certainly not the usual Emeril greatness.

    This recipe is ridiculously good and super easy to make. I used dried spices instead of fresh.

    I wanted a savory dish for my butternut squash and this looked promising. I knew my day would be busy so I wanted something quick and simple for dinner.
    Consequently, I did not expect much from the recipe but I was plesantly surprised. The flavors work well together and I would not change a thing. This is comfort food at it's best.

    I made this with slight modifications and it was incredible! When heating the oil, I added 2 sprigs of rosemary(minus stems and then added the sausage. Since most of my family are lactose intolerant, as well as keeping it lower in calories, I omitted the cream as well as the vinegar.
    It was so amazing, I had to make a double batch 2 days later!
