I'll give you my personal Butternut Squash Soup recipe. Squash soup is very in-vogue right now, and it's delicious:
You need:
Blender
2 butternut squash (remove the seeds and cut into strips)
Sea salt
Unsalted butter
Pepper
honey
fresh ginger
heavy cream
fresh nutmeg (dried is OK too)
1 qt chicken stock (broth is fine)
Heat the oven to 400 degrees F and roast the strips of squash on a pan, brushing with butter and sprinkling with salt. Roast them until they're tender (about a half hour or so).
Scrape the flesh from the skin into a large stock pot. Add the stock, 1/3 cup of honey, a few pinches of pepper, and grate some ginger into the pot (about 1 tsp or so).
Simmer the mixture for 10 minutes or so, then pour the mixture into a blender and blend it until smooth. You'll need to add/replace the mixture several times until the entire pot is blended. If you have one of those "blender wands", that works well too.
Add 3/4 cup of heavy cream and reheat. Add more salt and pepper to taste, and finish with a few pinches of nutmeg.
I made this during the holidays every year and the family loves it. If you want to be REALLY fancy, serve this in hallowed out baked acorn squashes like this:
