Ingredients
-
2 Tbsp Olive Oil (or oil of your choosing)
1/2 Cup Onion, Chopped
2-3 Stalks Celery, Chopped
2-3 Carrots, Peeled and Chopped
3/4 Cup Fresh Mushrooms, Chopped
2 Cups Canned Pumpkin (or you can use fresh pumpkin that is cooked and mashed)
2 Cups Vegetable Broth (I use low sodium)
2 Cups Milk (I use 1% but you can use your choice, even 1/2 cream if you desire)
1/2 Cup Orange Juice
Salt to taste (I do not use to make it low salt diet approved)
Garnish (not calculated in nutrition totals):
1 TBSP sour cream
2-3 Dashes Hot Sauce (Optional)
Chives, chopped
Orange peel (Optional, but pretty)
Directions
Saute vegetables in oil for about 5 minutes. Add sauted vegetables to broth, add pumpkin as well: simmer for 10 minutes. Add milk, orange juice simmer for 10 more minutes (this is when you would salt to taste).
Serve Hot. Garnish each bowl with 1 Tbsp Sour Cream and 2-3 dashes Pepper Sauce, or substitute Chives and Orange Peel for the hot sauce, makes a less spicy version. You could just use the sour cream (that is how my niece likes it)... or dream up your own!
Makes about 8 1-Cup servings
