How to Make Butternut Squash Soup with Tortellini
Tips for the Perfect Butternut Squash Soup
- No one wants a rock hard butternut squash! Make sure your squash is fork tender before taking it out of the oven.
- Because your butternut squash is a thicker soup, your noodles would cook in it! Make sure to boil your tortellini separately!
- The sky is the limit when it comes to spices for your soup. Feel free to experiment with some sage, oregano, rosemary, thyme and more.
- When cooking your butternut squash soup remember to keep your temperature low!! If you put your stove above medium you'll risk curdling your cream.

I just wanted to draw your attention to the fact that your directions are different in the post and recipe card and thus a bit confusing. It would be helpful if you aligned them and checked for errors because I couldn’t really follow parts of the recipe card. I’m still making the soup and am piecing it together because it does sound delicious!
After further review you are correct! I’ve updated the recipe card instructions. Let me know if that makes more sense, and enjoy!
where does the soup cube go? it doesn’t say
It goes in the pot to cook once you add your butternut squash mixture in!
