A super easy pumpin soup. I did use 1 cup of homemade concentrated vegetable stock and topped the rest with water, though next time I would add a little less water so as to have a slightly thicker consistency. Served with recipe #209427 and side salad. I think served like this you would get 4 to 6 serves. Thank you Jogreen, made for Healthy Choices.

Very good base for a pumpkin soup. I like mine with a little oomph to it so I added a little curry powder. Had it with toasted pumpernickel bread and it was AMAZING. Thanks Jogreen.
