1 large turk's head, butternut, or (cut up) hubbard squash (about 2 or 3 pounds)
Poke a few holes in the squash, and microwave for about 10 minutes. This will allow you to cut the squash in half, so that you can remove the seeds, and peel it easily.
Put the squash with the remaining ingredients into a large pot, and simmer gently until the vegetables and squash are very tender.
Purée the mixture with a stick blender, or cool and use processor. If the puré is too thick, add more liquid; if too thin, add potato flakes.
Poster's Notes:
Enjoy hot or cold, with or without a dollop of sour cream.
Last week I added a bag of frozen rhubarb and the remains of a can of cranberry sauce---wonderful! Do not be afraid to experiment...you will be delighted.
I hate to brag, but I think I am the queen of squash soup! It is the easiest vegetable soup to make, too.
