Creamy Butternut Squash Soup






My butternut squash has taken over my patio.  I decided to make a creamy butternut squash soup from the first butternut squash I picked.  I sauteed one onion, small dice, until tender, then added the butternut squash, small cube dice, sauteed until brown.  Then I added just enough chicken stock to cover the squash.  Let it simmer until the squash was tender.  Then I pureed the mixture in a blender in batches.  Add the end, I added cream cheese to make it creamy.
