Add the cooked squash and chicken stock, stir well to combine, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Tips:
- Choose the right butternut squash: Look for a squash that is firm and has a deep orange color. Avoid squash that has soft spots or blemishes.
- Roast the butternut squash before pureeing it: Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast the squash in a 400°F oven for 45-60 minutes, or until it is tender.
- Use a good-quality sausage: The sausage is a key ingredient in this soup, so it's important to use a good-quality sausage. Look for a sausage that is made with fresh, high-quality meat.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when browning the sausage: If you overcrowd the pan, the sausage will steam instead of brown. Cook the sausage in batches if necessary.
- Add the vegetables to the soup in stages: Adding the vegetables to the soup in stages helps to prevent them from becoming overcooked. Add the vegetables that take longer to cook, such as the carrots and celery, first. Then, add the vegetables that cook more quickly, such as the kale and spinach.
- Season the soup to taste: Once the soup is finished cooking, season it to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.
- Serve the soup immediately: Butternut squash soup is best served immediately after it is made. You can also store the soup in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Conclusion:
Butternut squash soup is a delicious and nutritious soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a butternut squash soup that is sure to impress your family and friends.
