Butternut Squash and Pear Soup | Red, Round, or Green

Name: Butternut Squash and Pear Soup | Red, Round, or Green
Ingredients: 1 cup diced onion or leek (use only the white and light green parts, if using leek); 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter or extra-virgin olive oil (I tend to use a mixture of both); 6 cups of peeled, cubed butternut squash (large chunks; about 1 1/2 inches or so); 2 medium pears, peeled and diced (you can also use apples); 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary, or 1-2 tsp. dried; 8 cups chicken or vegetable broth (I use homemade chicken stock for this); 1/3 cup half and half or heavy cream (optional); salt and pepper, to taste
