A Tasty Way to Eat Squash- For Real

This is not squash soup because I ate all the squash soup.

Breakfast today was an orange, but I really, really wanted it to be Halloween candy.  

Last night was squash soup and asparagus.  It was really good.  I wasn't expecting it to be so good.  So good, that by dinner time there was not enough soup.  Nobody in the family really wanted to try it anyway, so I ...
poured what was left over a bowl of bow-tie pasta.  Kids will eat anything over bow-tie pasta.

My mother brought the soup with her when she came for Halloween, so I don't have the recipe but here are the clues:  

• She gave it to me because she put cloves in it and she hates cloves.
• I didn't taste any cloves.
• It was yellow.

I topped it with shredded mozzarella.  Yes, I am aware that real mozzarella, still floating in brine is too soft to shred, but boy!  Did that store-shredded mozzarella work on the squash soup. 

Here's the thing: I don't like squash and I'm not crazy about cheese.  So, when I tell you it was good, it was.  

Feel free to share your squash soup recipes that involve cloves.
