Delicious
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this soup for myself and my husband. I added 1/4 c. chopped celery and 1/4 c. chopped carrots when I added the onion... and garlic. Instead of the yogurt I added a teaspoon of mascarpone cheese to each serving. The soup had a velvety consistency and was absolutely delicious. I will be making this again soon.Read more

sad
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I triple checked the recipe to make sure I put in the right ingredients and I did.... the curry was TOTALLY overpowering to... the point where I couldn't even taste the squash. It was almost inedible. It was also really thin. I love curry but the curry powder just didn't taste good. Perhaps I used the wrong type of curry powder but the spice bottle says "curry powder" so I don't know. Read more

not worth your time
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

After preping all the vegetables and waiting for the squash to cool, plus putting it through a blender... definitely very... disappointing. Very bland. We used veg broth, so maybe other liked the taste of chicken squash soup, but otherwise not worth the time you put into it. After taking the time to make didn't even feel like eating it after we taste tested! What a waste of perfectly good squash!Read more
