So I had to mess with this recipe. I've had this before and it is good
following the recipe.

I used dried toasted mince onions instead of the onion powder...Tastes good
this way too.

Jill's Roasted Butternut soup

Soups/Chowders, tested

4 pounds butternut squash -- (2 large)
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cups chicken stock; -- or broth
2 cups water; - (I use less)
1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
2 teaspoons salt; -- (I omit)
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
sour cream -- for garnish; (I omit)

Split the squashes down the middle lengthwise and scoop out the seeds and
pulp with a spoon. Brush a baking sheet with olive oil. Place the
squashes, cut side down on the baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 1
hour
or until tender. Scoop out the flesh with a spoon and place into a large
mixing bowl. In another mixing bowl, stir together water and stock. Puree
squash in a blender or food processor (in batches) adding the liquid as
needed until you have a smooth puree. Pour pureed squash into a deep pot
and bring to a low boil. Season with salt, pepper, onion powder and
tarragon. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook over very low heat about 1
hour,
stirring every so often (say every 15 minutes). Garnish each bowl with a
small dollop of creme fraiche or sour cream if desired.

Serves 8-10. This soup can be frozen.
