I’m so glad that soup weather is finally coming this week to So. Cal! I love pumpkin soup and I have a yummy recipe for you. This creamy, velvety pumpkin soup recipe is super delicious and easy to make! So comforting for the Fall & Winter season. Made with simple ingredients, it’s a perfect soup to make in a big batch for Thanksgiving or Friendsgiving dinner! . .

INGREDIENTS - 12 cups fresh pumpkin (peeled & chopped)
- 1 white or yellow onion (finely diced)
- 3 cups chicken stock/broth
- 3 cups water
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 1 Teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- 2 Teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 Tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 Teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- cup pumpkin seeds for serving (optional). INSTRUCTIONS

1. In a large dutch oven or big pot, heat olive oil and then add onions and saute onions until soft and translucent but not browned.
2. Once onions have softened, add in the pumpkin chunks, kosher salt, sugar, nutmeg, freshly ground black pepper and chicken stock/broth. Liquid should be about 1 inch lower than the top of the pumpkins. See notes.
3. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 30-40 minutes until pumpkin is soft and tender when poked with a fork.
4. Using a hand blender, blender the pumpkin until it becomes super smooth and creamy with no chunks of pumpkin or onions in sight.
5. Then add 1/4 cup of heavy cream into the soup and mix until evenly blended.
6. To serve, drizzle each bowl with a little heavy cream and some pumpkin seeds (optional). Enjoy!

Hi friends! I’ve been MIA on IG for a while now. Mostly because I just wasn’t feeling it as a fashion blogger. So, I decided to completely change the direction of my content to be focused on food and entertaining. I’ve been in the kitchen baking and cooking away and I can’t wait to share all of my recipes and entertaining tips with you all! 💗

It was so nice to be able to make this Father’s Day breakfast for the hubby this morning! Honestly, with a little effort, you can make it better than a restaurant experience! It’s all in the presentation of food and the table that makes it so special. .
