Spicy Savory Pumpkin Soup image

I made this one up on my own after I learned how to cook well enough. All kinds of beans can be used, black beans do very well as do pinto beans, but regular red or dark red kidney beans are my favorite with this particular soup. You can also substitute pumpkin puree for squash puree! I think the green onion goes perfect with the mix but a small can of green chiles works well too. This is a great soup to have in the fall. Yields about 4 medium-sized servings.

Time 40m

Yield 4 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups vegetable broth
1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree
1 (16 ounce) can dark red kidney beans
8 ounces corn (one small can works, or use half of a bigger one that's 14-15 oz)
1 green onion, chopped (or small can of green chiles)
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 garlic clove, peeled and mashed (or use 1 tsp of that liquid-y minced garlic)
2 teaspoons onion powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 sprigs fresh cilantro
1 pinch ground ginger

Steps:

  • Rinse and drain the beans and corn, put them aside for now.
  • Bring the broth to a boil, then reduce the heat.
  • Meld the pumpkin puree into the broth, stirring well, until completely incorporated.
  • Stir in the beans.
  • Add the oil and garlic and incorporate, then lower the heat and let it simmer for a few minutes.
  • Add the corn and green onion (or the rinsed chiles if you're using those) and stir them in well.
  • Mix in the dried ingredients and incorporate. Then put in the cilantro.
  • Raise the heat a little and let it simmer until thick and bubbly, about 15-25 minutes.

This soup was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably wouldn't make it again.

This soup was a disaster! I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out lumpy and bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I found this soup to be too sweet. I would have preferred a more savory flavor. I also thought the texture was a bit too thick.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I added some additional spices and it was much better. I would also recommend adding some chopped bacon or sausage for extra flavor.

This soup was easy to make and very tasty. I substituted almond milk for the heavy cream and it was still creamy and delicious. I also added a bit more cayenne pepper for a little extra spice.

This was my first time making pumpkin soup and it turned out amazing! The soup was creamy, flavorful, and had just the right amount of sweetness. I will definitely be making this again.

I've made this soup several times now, and it's always a hit. My family loves the creamy texture and the subtle sweetness of the pumpkin. I also appreciate that it's a healthy and affordable dish.

This pumpkin soup is a great way to warm up on a cold day. It's also very flavorful and easy to make. I added a bit more spice than the recipe called for, and it turned out perfectly.
