This was a really good soup. The squash flavor was very nice. It was easy to prepare. I used marjoram instead of the rosemary because that is what I had. I also used my immersion blender to smooth. I will definitely make this again.

I added a few slices of full bodied bread in the pot and used my immersion blender. The apples gives it just the right amount of sweetness.

Not a soup person but got this recipe from a book club friend. Easy to make, used one pear, one apple, rosemary. Ate 2 servings and froze the rest. Went out and bought ingredients to make another batch the next week for friends! Best soup ever! Thanks!!
