Do you have a can or two of pumpkin puree hanging around from Thanksgiving? Here’s a quick lunch or dinner soup that makes up in a hurry.
If you have leftover chicken or vegetables, add them to create a heartier soup. Cauliflower is one of my favorite adds.
Pebre is a good topping and Flaxseed Flatbread is always a tasty complement to this or any soup.
