I was supposed to add cream cheese and I think that would be even better but I did not.

It's a delicious way to get a lot of fiber.
Wonderful base for a soup that you can change to your taste. Adding some fresh or ground ginger lends an 'Asian' flavor. A few scrapes of fresh nutmeg makes it taste like 'fall'. I like to add some kale leaves (sliced) for even more fiber and nutrition. The dark green added to the golden squash makes for a lovely presentation. Also, nice if you add a small spoonful of sour cream at serving....or a sprinkling of crispy bacon.....the additions are limitless.
