1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Fill a 9x13 inch casserole dish with 1 inch of water and place the acorn squash halves into the dish, cut side down. Roast for 30-45 minutes or till they are easily pierced with a fork or knife. Pull out of the oven and set aside to cool.

4. Working in batches, ladle the soup into a blender and puree till smooth. (Don't forget to vent the blender lid so the soup doesn't explode.) You could also use an immersion blender if you have one and are so inclined. Salt to taste if it needs just a little more.

5. Once pureed, ladle the soup into serving bowls and enjoy! I've topped this soup with many differnt things. Our favorites are roasted chicken, bacon, and romano cheese. I imagine sour cream would be tasty too.
