- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 stalk celery, chopped
- 1 medium carrot, chopped
- 2 medium potatoes, cubed
- 1 medium butternut squash - peeled, seeded, and cubed

Instructions
- Begin by gathering all the necessary ingredients for the butternut squash soup recipe.
- In a large pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onions, celery, carrots, potatoes, and butternut squash, and cook for about 5 minutes or until lightly browned. Pour enough chicken stock over the vegetables to cover them.
- Increase heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer until all the vegetables are tender, which should take around 40 minutes.
- Using a blender, puree the soup until it is smooth. Pour the pureed soup back into the pot, and mix in any remaining chicken stock until the soup reaches the desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the butternut squash soup hot and enjoy!
