Ingredients

⅜ cup unsalted butter
⅔ cup chopped onion
48 ounces butternut squash, peeled and cubed
4 ½ cups water
4 cubes beef bouillon
¾ teaspoon dried marjoram
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 pounds leftover roasted turkey
⅛ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
16 ounces cream cheese

Directions

Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat and cool onions until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add butternut squash, water, beef bouillon, marjoram, pepper, and cayenne; bring to a boil. Cook until butternut squash is tender, about 25 minutes.
Add turkey and cream cheese to the saucepan with the butternut squash mixture.
Pour soup in batches into a blender or food processor; blend until smooth. Return to saucepan and heat through, about 5 minutes, but do not let soup boil.

Cook's Note:

You can also use an immersion blender and puree the soup in the saucepan.
