This hearty soup pairs squash and cream style corn for pleasant taste. My family says this is their favorite squash recipe, and friends also comment on its wonderful flavor. —Janice Zook, White River Junction, Vermont

This was a hit for the family. They want it for Christmas Eve. I did not add the cream, I only had skin milk and it tasted just fine. Yummy

I did make a few changes. I added a few tablespoons of chopped red pepper- substituted milk for the cream and did not need to add any flour. It was quite thick without it. Nice change for butternut squash. Will make it again for sure.

Loved this thick tasty soup. We lightened it up by using fat free Half & Half and turkey bacon.
