    This soup was not what I expected at all! I used only 4 cups of chicken stock, and it was still way to watery. It had no really good flavor to it either. I didn't enjoy this soup at all.

    This was a disappointment. I followed the recipe, a first for me, but it is a nasty brown color and far too thin. Too much liquid and needs another ingredient like apples or carrots. It was to be put in a friends refrigerator for a quick meal after a long journey home. But I was not pleased with it and will try another recipe next time I need to make squash soup.
