Roasted Garlic & Butternut Squash Soup

One of my favorite soups is Roasted Garlic & Butternut Squash Soup.  Just the sound of it warms me and on a blustery day like today a nice big bowl full is in order.  This lightened up version is naturally very low in fat and high in fiber, making it a perfect go-to Weight Watcher recipe.

    Rather than just saying a medium Butternut squash and a medium sweet potato it would be more useful to give a quantity such as 6 cups. Not everyone has the same definition of “medium”.
