Slow Cooker Butternut Squash Soup

No ratings yet

This soup tastes wonderful all the time, especially chilly days!

“I created this slow cooker recipe a few years ago. It is so yummy and savory especially on a cold day. I never really had an official recipe for it, I just added spices until I thought there was enough! Luckily my friend, Katie, did take the time to measure out the spices one of the times she made it! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do. If you want it to be more soupy, add more chicken broth.”

  1. Oh my goodness it was wonderful!! My 4 year old and 10 month old boys really loved it as well. It fits perfectly into my weight watchers plan. Thank you for sharing!!

  2. I am not a huge fan of corn in soups and I’m allergic to tomatoes. Is there something I can sub in for these ingredients or can I just leave them out altogether??

  3. Also how would it change the nutrition if I added 4 chicken breasts (or whatever meat you reccomend)? I gotta have my meat ?!
    Thank you guys so much for making and posting these recipes! My mom and I have been avoiding crockpot meals because they can skyrocket in calorie count, but the game is on now.

    1. Suvanna, Great! For one serving with one chicken breast it would add about 3-4 smart points depending on the size. 🙂
