Butternut Squash Soup Recipe

[Wonder Woman]

Anyone have a recipe? I have had somewhat-sweet soups made with butternut squash and even one that was not sweet (had curry in it!) and I love both.

I bought the darn squash and now I don't know how to make soup.

Also, I don't even know how to cook it. Please help!

Your post has reminded me that I haven't had butternut squash in a long time. Eventhough I've gone through the OWL rungs, I still haven't added butternut squash or any of the winter squashes into my diet---I guess I'm too hung up on pumpkin and zucchini.....

Yeah it is high in carbs. That's why it's re-introduced during the "Starchy veggie" rung of OWL or during Pre-Maintenance. I guess I didn't re-introduce it because I did teh strachy veggie rung during summer lol. But I still have P.L.E.N.T.Y of canned pumpkin puree in my cupboards, so once I finish them, I'll test the butternut squash out.

I bought one before I started induction (again) and figured I should cook it before it went bad. I just checked and it's already gone bad so I just threw it out. I won't buy another one since it's too high in carbs for induction.

I am always buying veggies and not eating them in time and they go bad. Ugh.
