    4 cups low-sodium organic chicken broth, plus extra for moistening, as needed
    1 cup canned pure pumpkin
    4 slices applewood smoked bacon, chopped
    2 tablespoons butter
    1 leek (white and pale green part), thinly sliced
    2 teaspoons kosher salt
    1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
    1 1/2 cups Arborio rice or medium-grain white rice
    2/3 cup dry white wine, such as pinot grigio

    1/4 teaspoon (generous) freshly grated nutmeg

Tips

You can cut back on the goat cheese quite a bit. I might add a bit more bacon if this is your main course.
