Today was all about "comfort"....I made my homemade pumpkin soup...Nothing says warmth and comfort like a bowl of soup...mmmm.


This is my homemade recipe:

~fresh pumpkin cooked and pureed~ready to put in a soup.

or I used ~1 can of pumpkin puree

~1 fresh onion
~enough olive oil to saute' onion

~ approx 2 cups chicken broth or vege broth (I used chicken broth)

~ approx 1 cup cream (I used half and half)

~salt

~pepper

~curry or cumin

~tamari pepitos (pumpkin seed)

~smoked gouda cheese

~saute` onions in olive oil until they become clear. Add spices to the onion. Add pumpkin  puree` and chicken broth. Stir on low heat until hot. Add cream and stir. Remove from heat and garnish with  shredded smoked gouda cheese and pepitos or your favorite topping.
