BUTTERNUT BOATS
This thick and creamy soup became a part of Evelyn Bentley's recipe collection, thanks to her grown daughter, Jane. "We share recipes back and forth all the time," pens Evelyn from Ames, Iowa. "This one, we both agree, is a real treat!" (To make it extra fun, our home economists suggest using the squash shells as serving bowls.)
