Preparation method

Prep: 30 mins | Cook: 6 hours

1. Place all ingredients into a slow cooker.
2. Cover and set crock pot on Low for 6 – 8 hours (For “speeder” cooking, place on High for 4 – 4 1/2 hours)
3. In the final hour of cooking use a slotted spoon and extract the chunks of butternut squash that haven’t “melted” into the soup, and mash them with a potato masher. Then return them to the crock pot for the final hour.
