Fab! So happy I found this recipe. Only thing I changed was I used ckn broth not bouillon and it was amazing. Like something I'd get in a restaurant.

Oops - I meant to give it 5 stars.

Wow, is this ever good! I also used chicken broth, and I think next time I'll try the frozen butternut squash (just because cutting up the squash was kind of a pain). A definite keeper!

Absolutely delish! I too, sauteed a clove of garlic with the onion and it turned out WONDERFUL. Creamy and wonderful, my family loved it. My father is not a fan of evaporated milk, but with this dish, it works out great. MAKE THIS RECIPE!

Excellent soup. Like other reader, I used chicken broth instead of boullion and also sauted a clove of garlic with the onion. This was a great tasting soup, nice consistency, beautiful color and so healthy!

This was both my first foray into homemade soup as well as my first time eating (or working with) butternut squash. It was so easy, and tasted fantastic! I will definitely be making this again.

I used a can of chicken broth instead of water and bouillon and used fat free evaporated milk, it came out great!

This soup was excellent and I would definitely make it again. I used a 20 oz frozen bag of cubed butternut squash for convenience and a 5 oz can of Fat Free evaporated milk for a creamier texture. A definite "Must Try" recipe.
