ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH CREAM SOUP WITH GINGER
This is our favorite butternut squash soup and the whole family loves it. I usually make a huge pot of soup and freeze parts of it before adding the cream. I like my soup thick, so I don't add a ton of vegetable broth, but feel free to thin it out with more broth.

GINGER BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP
The combination of ginger and butternut squash is delicious and addictive. This recipe yields a creamy soup without the use of any cream. I love to whip this soup up with my immersion blender right in the pot. This soup also freezes well. You can serve it with a dollop of sour cream if you desire, although I serve it without a garnish. If you want to make this a completely dairy free soup, use dairy free margarine (Fleishman's unsalted, or Earth Balance.) Oh yeah, and you MUST use fresh ginger.
