Spicy Pumpkin Soup
Spicy Pumpkin Soup
This spicy pumpkin soup should certainly be cooked in October, when the first cold weather sets in, when a carpet of fallen leaves covers the ground, and store shelves are full of pumpkins of various shapes and sizes. Incredibly hearty and warming it’s also can can kick away the autumn blues.
