I love the butternut squash soup from Atlanta Bread Company. This tastes just like it! Yummy!! I used light chicken broth, light butter and regular cream! It was delicious! Thank you Paula Deen!!!!!! :)

Oh My God! If you are a soup lover you have got to try this recipe! I left out the butter and sauteed this in a butter spray coated pot. I also used fat free cream. This soup knocked my socks off.
