While this soup recipe was a good starting off point I felt the need to bump up the flavor and ingredients. I added a can of diced tomatoes a Granny Smith apple and some nutmeg to make it a little more Fall-ish and to sneak in some more "good stuff". I used half the amount of Kale to ensure it wouldn't be too bitter for my kids. All in all the soup was delicious. I wish I hadn't used 12 cups of broth as the recipe called for since I felt it was a little thin. I think 10 c would've been perfect. My husband also wished it had some more beans as he is not vegetarian and I agree. Don't forget the bread...yum!
I made this when I had busted my permanent retainer and couldn't eat hard food. I switched the vegetable broth out for Herb & Wine broth when I couldn't find any Veggie in the store. It was delicious! It was quick easy and absolutely amazing. I will definitely make it again. Even if you don't think you like squash try this recipe -- you'll love it.
This was a wonderful hearty soup for our cold winters in Massachusetts. The only things I did differently were using olive oil instead of vegetable oil and I used chicken broth as the store did not carry vegetable broth. So good my 4 year old devoured a bowl of it.
Pretty good this recipe makes a ton of soup! I left out about two cups of broth because it did not fit into my soup pot. Good thing I did because after pureeing three cups of the soup it was not very chunky (I like chunky soup). I added more garlic and about a teaspoon of rosemary to more flavor. I also added in a handful of pasta shapes at the end because I thought that it needed something more.
This soup was delicious. To make it easier I used one large can of pumpkin instead of the butternut and did not need to puree. It was thick and delicious and tasted even better the next day.
I only added 2 cups of Kale... I didn't want to take a risk of ruining the soup with such a bitter green. The soup tastes SO GOOD but you'll have to wait until the very end to rate this one. PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE THE FINAL STEP. HOLD DOWN THE LID WITH A CLOTH! You may want someone with muscles doing this one. I thought the lid of my blender would be able to handle it... Let's just say I had to add 15 min to the recipe because of extra cleaning time. Excuse me while I go have a shower!
Absolutely wonderful and full of flavor. Could not stop eating it from dinner time until 4:00 am for a snack. Will make again many times!!!!!!!!!!!
It was really good. I chose not to puree the soup and i like d it better.
I used 8 cups of vegetable broth because it is just two of us and I didn't want a lot of leftovers. We used 2 cups of kale and added 1 can of mushrooms because I like mushrooms. This was so good. Thanks for the inspiration. The recipe was added to our book. It's a keeper.
