That's interesting, in Australia we call it Butternut Pumpkin and it's probably the most commonly used pumpkin especially for soup. I usually (but not always) roast the pumpkin first with cloves of garlic to bring out the sweetness before using it for soup. I also love adding red lentils to it, and just fry the onions and add salt pepper and vegie stock for seasoning. You are right it is something everyone in the house will like - even the kids and my meat loving husband! :)

Thanks for dropping the Aussie knowledge.

If you add a sweet potato in the soup it works really well in a soup. I make a butternut squash and sweet potato soup and it's always delicious.

[TheSweetestVegan]

Sounds perfect.

I use a potato peeler too! Lol. I use a downward motion. It's effortless almost. Going upward creates a lot more resistance. :-) Try it!

Oh! I made this recipe for thanksgiving and it was great. I'm doing it again today!!

What camera do you us? Thanks!

The only thing i'd add is to warn viewers about blending hot foods. Novices might fill it too high and get hot napalm-like squash on them!

My daughter also calls my soup for baby food. I love baby food then. Your soup looks delicious.

My daughter picked up pre-cut butternut squash the other day in the store and I looked at her said, "I have no idea what to do with that." LOL, so she put it back. Looks like I will be going back to the store.
