I love this one when I have fresh squash from the garden. I'd like to try something new...gotta a favorite to share.

TEAROOM SQUASH SOUP Form Southern Lady Magazine 10 – 12 Yellow squash 2 onions, chopped Salt 1 tsp cumin 1 tsp garlic powder 2 sticks butter (I put only one) 3 8oz. Pkg Velveta Cheese (I used 2) 1 tsp cayenne 1 tsp white pepper 1 quart half & half ¼ tsp baking soda

Cook squash and onions in a large sauce pan with water to cover. When tender, drain and puree. You can use a stick blender in the sauce pan or transfer to a food processor in small batches. Combine puree with salt, cumin, garlic powder, butter, cheese, cayenne pepper, white pepper, baking soda and half & half. Heat thoroughly and serve. Garnish with parsley and sour cream. 10 Servings ( Easily serves 12 –15)

Note: Always a hit. I leave some squash pieces to add to the pureed mixture for a better texture.

Carolyn Ellen,

I am not a fan of hot stuff, but want to do the soup. Would you suggest cutting the hot sauce down to half of it? Would it still have enough taste?

My husband loves things spicy...but I don't.

Thanks for you help!

Ellen I don't find this soup to be hot. I think the green sauce is milder than a red hot sauce. Anyway, you can put half of it in and then let your husband add what he would like to bring the flavor up. This is such a good soup-I hope you like it!
