A very good soup. I used perhaps 1 1/2 lbs of squash, reduced the other ingredients, used one large jonagold apple, as that was what I had. As I had only dried thyme, I added it with the broth. Roasting the squash, etc., this morning as I was getting ready for work made this very easy to finish for dinner.
