The Hubbard is the small, mottled blue-green one in the front center. At right is a Musquee de Provence and at left is a Buttercup.
Roasting the squash gives the soup a nice flavor. It also makes peeling the hard Hubbard easier. The Hubbard has a very moist flesh with higher water content than other squashes. Large ones can grow to 30 lbs. Carrots and lentils add texture and flavor to an otherwise classic squash soup recipe.

I am proud of you, Jen! I read your post on the pureed veggies as well. Let me know how that works for you.
I tried the Hubbard carrot and lentil soup for dinner tonite and loved it. thanks for the wonderful recipe.
So glad you liked it! It's always good news when someone likes a recipe. Thanks.
This is sooooo good! It's the perfect winter meal for post skiing bliss. I made it vegan and substituted accordingly, but it is mostly vegan anyway.
This is a very exquisite combination. I had a similar recipe a few years back and its very pleasing to the taste buds!!!
