This smooth soup is colorful as well as nutritious and filling. Served chilled, it makes an elegant first course when entertaining. But it's also good warm. --Elaine Sabacky of Litchfield, Minnesota

I thought it was very bland.. a waste of a very expensive butternut squash. I added some cinnamon and spices but it just over powered the squash. Maybe just need to tweak the amounts or something

i liked the ease of this recipe. i made it the first time and had guests coming over, so i was a little nervous. in the end, i altered it a bit, as i thought it might be too bland and grated some fresh ginger, which gave it a nice zing..oh, and i served it warm.
