Pumpkin & Sweet Potato Soup

Definitely has become a family favourite. One of my teenage sons will not touch any type of pumpkin soup, until I made this one and now he can’t get enough. Occasionally will add a dash of curry powder but mostly stick to the recipe. A brilliant soup. Would highly recommend to anyone

Made this yesterday, for my next week’s worth of lunches for myself (my males are horrified at the thought of having a meat-free meal – haha)
I roasted the pumpkin and sweet potato first.
Delish!!

Unfortunately I found the pumpkin soup too bland. Maybe I like spicy, but all was good jazzed it up with keens curry powder 3 teaspoons, nutmeg 1 teaspoon, allspice 1 teaspoon, and coconut cream 2 x small tins. End result with the added ingredients was good.

Yum!!! I made a few variations… I only used 1 *extremely large sweet potato, half a large jap pumpkin and 2 onions. I did not roast vegetables first, just chucked it all in with 2ltrs of chicken stock, couple big tsps of crushed garlic, 1/4 tsp ginger and salt & pepper…. it was AMAZING and there’s only 2 serves left to freeze because everyone loved it…so I’m making more tomorrow 😃

Truly a delicious recipe. I looked at the ingredients at first and thought, surely a bunch of vegetables aren’t going to produce that much flavour. But I’d seen everyone raving about it and figured I had to give it a go. It was BEAUTIFUL. So tasty, and so healthy. I will definitely be making this one over and over again.

Made this last night. Delicious and a huge hit with the family. Used only 1 lt of stock and it was so thick and rich. Yum! (And I am not a big fan of pumpkin)

Absolutely loved this recipe, used 1L veggie stock and 500ml chicken stock an it was perfect. Also froze well for lunches. Made with pumpkin not butternut.

I have made plenty of pumpkin soup in my time but this is my favourite. It is full of flavour and so easy to make. I only used half a butternut pumpkin as it was thick enough. Next time a whole pumpkin and extra stock, to make it go further. I just put everything in the slow cooker without roasting the pumpkin.

Beautiful soup! The family came back for seconds!

Best pumpkin soup ever my husband just said. And I loved it too even though I’ve never been a fan of pumpkin soup
Just added a bit of nutmeg and only 1 onion
Used a home grown butter nut pumpkin
All the kids loved it too and gave some to my neighbour who thanked me

This is a family favourite in our house, loved by the whole family.

I also add 2 tsp of minced ginger.

Perfect recipe, I’m not the average housewife my husband actually cooks more than me. I used Chicken stock and drained half the liquid before blending and it came out perfectly.

I made a huge batch. Used normal pumpkin as it was home grown. I thought I’d have heaps for left overs. Kids polished it off. It was a hit here.

Absolutely love this recipe, I didn’t roast just chucked it all in, I used 1.5L of stock, came out amazing!!! The flavour alone from the vegetables really shines. No cream required!!!! Will make again.

Fantastic warm hearty soup. Was very thick after blitzing it all but that’s how we like it anyway. Added some pepper but would love to try it with a spice next time.
