This is a tasty and super easy one-pot soup (I used an immersion blender. I caramelized the onion, cooked the squash until it was falling-apart tender and broth was beginning to thicken, and added a couple of splashes of half-and-half after blending. Not sure of the weight but I used a rather large squash which was perfect for this recipe. Delicious!

I'm going to give a 5 - and of course I made modifications, that's what cooking is all about. For me, anyway. I use recipes more like guidelines - not rules. Anyway - this was delicious! I had a huge butterCUP squash that came in my CSA box. Had no idea what to do with it since I've never seen or heard of buttercup squash before. Actually, I think the hardest part of this recipe was peeling the squash! I added some garlic of course, because it's just second nature to me. And I used beef base and water for the stock, because that's all I had. At the end I grated fresh nutmeg on top. Fantastic base recipe for a delicious fall soup : Yummy and pretty healthy too - just a smidge of butter.

Needs serious modifications. Way too thin, and tastes too much of chicken broth. See other reviews for suggestions on modifying if you stick with this as a start.

I felt like this was missing something so I added a bit of cinnamon and some honey to smooth out the flavor of the chicken stock. It went over very well.

Amazing. I added a tsp of fresh ginger to the onions and added a can of corn to the simmering mixture.. probably the simplest and best butternut squash I've ever had - great recipe. I also reduced to approx 3 cups of broth

What a great tasting soup! I reduced the amount of broth to 4 cups although in the future I think I would go down to 3 (I want it to be thick!. I also cut up a couple of carrots and two potatoes to cook with the squash... when it came time to puree I only scooped out the squash so that I could have chunks of the potato and carrot in the soup. It worked out great and my wife and I both enjoyed it very much! Very good with Drop Biscuits on the side!

I love the simplicity of this recipe. I roasted the squash instead of cooking it in the broth; great flavor.
