Banana Squash Soup image

Every Winter I love to look around and try to find a good recipe for soup. Since my wonderful neighbor gave me a nearly 8lb Banana Squash, I wondered what I would do with such a thing? I had never tried Banana Squash before, but love many other types... so I decided to try a little something myself, and it turned out great! I...

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large banana squash (anywhere from 3-8lbs)
2 large shitake mushrooms (you can also use the smaller ones if you prefer, just use a good handful)
1 large sweet onion
2 box vegetable stock (64oz total, or 8 cups)
2 clove garlic
1 tsp salt (optional)
1 tsp pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to "Roast" at 450 degrees. Slice up all of your onions, mushrooms, and garlic and mix them together. Size of the slice will not matter.
  • 2. Slice off the ends of the Banana Squash (or whatever Squash you are more fond of), then cut in half and take out seeds. Place into a deep dish made for high temperature's in the oven. Add 2 cups Vegetable Stock into the bottom of the dish, and place into oven for 15 minutes.
  • 3. Rotate deep dish inside oven, and add veggies into the dish, and continue roasting another 15 minutes, or until squash is soft.
  • 4. Take food out of oven, (optional: let cool if you would like.. makes it a little easier to handle - if you are not in a time crunch!) and procede to take skin completely off of squash. Throw away skin.
  • 5. Take all of the ingredients and puree in a blender or food processor.. slowly adding remaining Vegetable stock until you have arrived at your preferred consistency. Once pureed, put into a Pot on the Stove-top and continue to warm through for 5 minutes (or until warmed all the way). At this time, you may add in salt and pepper if you choose to, but I did not feel the need to as the ingredients do a natural seasoning.
  • 6. Enjoy!

This soup is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think it would be better with less ripe bananas or maybe even some added lemon juice.

I've made this soup several times now and it's always a hit with my family. It's so creamy and flavorful. I love the unique combination of banana and squash. It's a great way to use up leftover squash, and it's also a healthy and filling meal.

I was really looking forward to trying this soup, but I was disappointed. The flavors just didn't come together for me. I think it needed more spices or maybe some roasted vegetables.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover squash. It's also a healthy and filling meal. I like to serve it with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

I love this soup! It's so creamy and flavorful. I always make a big batch and freeze it so I can have it on hand for a quick and easy meal. I also like to add a bit of chopped bacon or sausage for extra flavor.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more spices or maybe even some roasted vegetables. I also found the texture to be a bit too thick. I might try thinning it out with some broth or milk next time.

This soup was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used ripe bananas. Next time I'll try using less ripe bananas or maybe even adding a bit of lemon juice to balance out the sweetness.

I was skeptical about the banana in this recipe, but it actually turned out really good! The soup is sweet and savory, and the banana adds a nice creaminess. I served it with a side of naan bread, and it was a perfect meal.

This soup was a hit with my family! The banana and squash flavors go surprisingly well together, and the soup is creamy and comforting. I added a bit of extra curry powder for a little bit of spice, and it was perfect. Will definitely be making this
