Squash is a fave of mine... any color, any time... I'll have to dig out my squash soup recipe and share it here for the Fall soup collections... this recipe sounds delish....

This is a great time of the year to have a recipe to use for yellow squash. I have never prepared it this way. Now that I have this recipe, I surely plan to do so.
