All the recipes I 've found for butternut squash soup, start with you having to chop it up - as anyone who has tried this, it's really hard!
So, this is a simple way of making a tasty soup, the easy way.

Put it into a preheated oven at 180C for about 25 minutes - you can cook your dinner at the same time.
This should enable you to be able to peel and chop it with ease (although a little messy). You will also need to remove the seeds and the fibrous bits with a spoon. The chunks should be about an inch square, but it doesn't need to be precise.
