Notes

  • Best pumpkins for pumpkin soup: You can use any kind of eating pumpkin for this soup, including butternut squash which is from the pumpkin family
  • Is this pumpkin soup healthy: Clocking in at approximately 171 calories per serving, this is a pretty healthy soup. Which is why I recommend the cheesy bread to go with it!
  • Cutting the pumpkin: Use a sharp knife to first cut the pumpkin in half, then quarters and further till you have 1 inch slices. These can be peeled and then diced further into 1 inch dices.
  • Vegan roasted pumpkin soup: This soup can easily be made vegan by swapping coconut milk for milk in the recipe
