SLOW-COOKER BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP



Slow-Cooker Butternut Squash Soup image

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
