Author Notes: Well, I love butternut squash soup and I am always looking for a fun and easy way to change it up. When fennel was on sale, this recipe was born. - ginnygetsfloury

Serves 4

1 butternut squash, roasted
1 fennel bulb, chopped
1 pear, chopped
1 sweet onion, chopped

salt and pepper to taste

In a stock pot, heat the olive oil and saute the onions until soft.
Add the fennel and pear, saute until the pear is soft.
Add the roasted butternut squash.
Stir in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Boil until a fork goes through the fennel easily. About 15 minutes.
