Only one problem with this soup:
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I can't stop eating it! This soup is amazing. I added a granny smith, nutmeg, cinnamon, cayanne pepper and a little heavy... cream. It's super easy to make, and is delicious with a rustic baguette from the bakery down the street. Happy Fall!Read more

Delicious soup
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I added one granny smith apple to the squash and onions. Roasted all together with a little olive oil. When squash was... tender, I then added the mixture to the broth in a large pot. Heated it all through, blended with my immersion blender, seasoned with salt and fresh ground nutmeg. Smoothed the soup out with about 1/4 cup heavy ceam. It was out of this world. Couldn't quit eating.Read more

Delicious
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I used a granny smith apple, some ground ginger, and a little milk along with the other ingredients. I also cut down the... stock to about 4 cups and used half vegetable and half chicken. My whole family loved it, even my picky 3 year old.Read more

Add less stock, makes a great bisque
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I added only 4 cups of stock, and mixed all the ingredients in a food processor. The texture, and flavor was incredible! I... also added some garam marsala and a pinch of curry. Yum!Read more
