Basic Butternut Squash Soup



3 small-med butternut squash
2 c vegetable broth
salt & pepper to taste

Roast the Squash. Scoop out the flesh into a blender. Combine with broth and puree. Season with salt and pepper to taste. This is the shortest blog recipe I've ever written.

See these previous posts for tips on some of the steps in this recipe.
