Iris' Pumpkin Soup

I asked my friends for some vegetable recipes to go with all of the starch we eat on Thanksgiving and boy did they deliver! I can't wait to try this out. Hot soup sounds so wonderful on this rainy Oregon evening.


Pumpkin Soup


Look for white pumpkins or butternut squash. 
Chop, seed and put in your pot along with an apple and an onion. 
Add about four cups chicken stock and simmer until the pumpkin is soft.
Allow to cool, then scoop the pumpkin meat out of it's skin. Toss the skin in the 
compost and puree the rest of the goodness with a bit of cream. 
Add salt and a touch of nutmeg. It's a staple around these parts. And don't forget to roast the seeds!
