Pumpkin Soup December 21 2014, 0 Comments

Ok, I'm googling pumpkin recipes. Again. This one is super easy, lazy.

  • Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup water, divided
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 can (15 ounces) pumpkin puree
  • 2 cups unsalted vegetable broth
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon + 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg or a scant teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 cup milk or the substitute of your choice
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 chopped green onion top

  1. In a large saucepan, heat 1/4 cup water over medium heat. Add onion and cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Don't let onion dry out.
  2. Add remaining water, pumpkin, broth, cinnamon and nutmeg. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the milk and cook until hot. Don't boil.
  3. Ladle soup into warmed bowls and garnish with black pepper and green onion tops. Serve immediately.
