Holt Vegetarian Supper Club enjoyed this soup and felt it would be great with Mexicorn for extra color or chilis and medium salsa for some extra "heat". This soup is not spicy unless you choose chilis or hotter salsa. This dish is very low in fat and calories but high in protein and fiber.

Bake squash (cut in half and removed seeds, bake upside down on tin foil on cookie sheet.) Bake time about one hour. Scoop squash out of skins and blend with enough water. Place in cooking pot and add other seasonings. Simmer for 5 minutes more and enjoy.

Since squashes can be hard to cut into, pierce them with a knife in several places and either bake or microwave. When tender, easily cut them in half. Use an ice cream scoop to remove the seeds. Then remove the squash from the shell. If you have more squash than needed, just bake and freeze. Can be used for soup at a later date.
