This scrumptious and hearty soup is perfect for those short on time or reluctant to tackle cumbersome fresh pumpkin and garlic prep. It makes a wonderfully satisfying and surprising meal for fall and winter dinner guests. I serve this delectable soup with crusty bread and grilled vegetables; it would also complement a roast. Ingredients:
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of potato soup |
1 1/4 cups water |
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 cup cream |
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste |
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, or to taste |
1/2 teaspoon ginger |
1 pinch paprika, for garnish |
1 cup seasoned croutons (optional) |
Directions:
1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream of potato soup, water, pumpkin, butter, and cream. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and ginger. Stir until blended, and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes.
2. Remove from heat, and pour into a tureen. Sprinkle the top with paprika, and top with seasoned croutons.
