SLOW-COOKER BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP
Much of the work for this soup can be done in advance, and it keeps all day in the slow cooker. This can easily be doubled if you're feeding a crowd. Once you've tried it, try mixing it up-add save or savory with the thyme or replace it with nutmeg. For a vegan version, replace the chicken broth with vegetable broth. -Jennifer Machado, Alta, California

THAI INSPIRED SPICY CURRY BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP
Love Thai flavors and I felt they would be a perfect match to play off the richness of a butternut squash soup. Curry, coconut, spicy are a wonderful to balance the richness of the squash. The first time I made it was kind of an accident. I was trying to make the traditional soup but when I tasted it lacked something. I looked to see how I could punch up the flavor. First I added the curry, I had some leftover red curry paste I made, added coconut milk and I felt I had something special. Like many soups and stews the flavor is better the following day. Enjoy!

- Heat a large heavy-bottom pot over medium-high heat; add olive oil. Cook and stir chili moritas in the hot oil until chili moritas are puffed and softened, 3 to 5 minutes.

Steps:
- Place butternut squash, onion, broth, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in your slow cooker. Cook on low for 8-10 hours, or on high for 4-6 hours.
- Remove the lid and let the soup cool a bit before pureeing. When cool enough to handle, carefully puree the entire batch right in the slow cooker with an immersion blender. You can also use a blender, working in batches, then return the soup to the slow cooker.
- Stir in the coconut milk and the Thai red curry paste. Cover with the lid and cook on low for another 30 minutes or so to heat the soup back up. Taste and add additional curry paste and salt if desired.
- Serve alone or with optional toppings.
