So I had a butternut squash left in my cupboard and decided to knock up a soup.
I wasn't expecting miracles, but a miracle happened!
It was the yummiest soup EVER!

1 butternut squash cubed.
1 carrot chopped
2 celery sticks chopped
1 onion chopped
1 red pepper chopped
2 garlic cloves halved
1 red chili chopped
1 1/2 pint of vegetable stock (i used 2 oxo cubes).

chuck it all into a pan.
boil, reduce heat & simmer until the squash has softened.
blend.
serve :)

Serves 4!

    How big was the squash? They seem tiny at the moment, in comparison to the one's I got in the summer. Any idea if it was say, small, medium or large? lol

    Sorry to be pedantic :bigsmile:

    Thanks for the recipe, I really want to try it as I LOVE squash and love soup, so........ :flowerforyou:
