Old-school pumpkin soup suggestions
The recipe is simple and it gives you a base to create something even tastier. Add some crispy bacon bits into the soup as a garnish for some texture. If you want some heat and spice, add some nutmeg and chili flakes to give it a boost. If you already enjoy them, why not bring some toasted pumpkin seeds to the party too? Serve with fresh cream, any of your creative additions and some garlic bread or toasted cheese sandwiches.
Invite the friends over for a feast this winter or snuggle with your family while watching movies. Enjoy a heartwarming bowl of old-school pumpkin soup.
