Steps:
- Place squashes on a paper towel and microwave on high just until tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the microwave, and halve each squash lengthwise (to speed cooling). When cool enough to handle, scoop out and discard the seeds. Scrape out flesh into a bowl; discard skin. (To prepare in oven, preheat oven to 450 degrees. Halve squash lengthwise; scoop out and discard seeds. Place squash, cut side down, on a rimmed baking sheet; cover tightly with aluminum foil. Roast until almost tender when pierced wtih a knife, 15 to 25 minutes. When cool enough to handle, scrape out flesh, discard skin, and proceed with step 2).
- In a large saucepan, heat butter over medium. Add onion; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add squash, thyme, broth, and 2 cups water. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce to medium, and cook until squash is very tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Working in batches, puree mixture in a blender until very smooth, about 1 minute. Return to pan; add half-and-half, and season generously with salt and pepper. Thin bisque, if needed, by adding more water. Serve garnished with thyme.

SLOW COOKER BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND ACORN SQUASH BISQUE
The squash in this bisque isn't hidden with creams, tons of sugar or butter. You can actually taste the vegetable and the other ingredients just compliment it. I was taken out to dinner for my birthday last week and got some wonderful Butternut Squash soup. I had an Acorn Squash and a little 1 pound butternut squash. I looked...

Steps:
- 1. In Slow Cooker, stir/whisk in bouillon granules or cubes, water, brown sugar, and ginger. Make sure all bouillon and ginger is incorporated and add cinnamon stick, onions and all of the squash stirring to incorporate ingredients together. Cover Slow Cooker, and turn to LOW for 7 to 8 hrs.
- 2. Once time has expired, turn off cooker and using an immersion hand held blender, break up and blend soup to desired consistency. If you do not have this type of blender, you can use a counter top blender. To do this, let the soup cool for at least an hour. Pour about 1/3 of squash mix into the blender, making sure you get some of the liquid into each batch. Place the lid on the blender and hold it down by placing a folded up towel over the lid and secure the top with your hand so the top does not fly off. Pulse a few times and blend to desired consistency. You will need to do this in a few batches. You can either transfer right away into storage containers and freeze or place in refrigerator, or you can serve right away by placing in a pot to reheat over medium heat until hot. Add any salt and pepper you wish at this time and garnish with a dollop of sour cream.
- 3. If you would like a creamier soup, while reheating, you can add to the bisque 1/2 cup of half and half after blending or just have out the sour cream or yogurt for each to stir into their bowls.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Combine the brown sugar with 1/4 cup butter, cinnamon, and five spice powder in a microwave safe bowl. Cook in the microwave on High until the butter has completely melted. Place the acorn squash cut side up onto the aluminum foil; brush with the brown sugar mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the squash is tender and golden brown, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove from the oven, allow to cool, and scoop out and reserve the flesh.
- Melt the remaining 1/4 cup of butter in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion, celery, and bell pepper. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the acorn squash, garlic, and seafood stock. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 30 minutes.
- Stir the cream and basil into the simmering soup; season with nutmeg, salt, and white pepper. Pour the soup into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth and pour into a clean pot. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup right in the cooking pot. Once pureed, add the crawfish tails, and simmer a few minutes until hot.

CURRIED ACORN SQUASH BISQUE
My own delicious variation of a curried squash-based soup using the acorn variety. With careful thought and care, I've created a smooth and invigorating soup that would provide a perfect dinner starter to any party or social gathering. Certainly a multi-purpose dish that would work well anywhere. Perfect in your favorite mug for chilly rainy days. When with friends, I like to serve it with baked honey ham and salad (just an idea). You'll have everyone asking you where you learned to cook so well, I promise!
