Just made it and we didn't have any butternut squash so I used sweet potato instead which worked really well

Hi mum of four and Lumpy - great idea to use the sweet potato instead Lumpy, I did the same, as I could not find any butternut at Tesco and the sweet potato worked really well. Now that the pumpkin season is truly here though I will try the butternut as well and see if there is a difference. Thanks for the recipe it is certainly going to be adopted as a family favorite.
BTW I mad a great big pot of the pumpkin/sweet potatoes and then decanted it into several tupperware containers and put them in the freezer. Now we should have this delicious pumpkin soup available anytime over the winter - great for a light Sunday evening dinner.by Kenny on Tue Oct 23 2007 reply to this comment
