yummy pumpkin soup...

I recently attended a cooking class and it got a bug in me to start cooking more meals. I really enjoy the process of cooking. Cutting up and preparing the ingredients, waiting patiently for it to be ready (and drinking wine in the process), and of course eating it when it's all done.

Because fall seems to be coming soon it got me in the mood for soup. I absolutely love soup on colder days and usually go for the store bought kind but I decided to purchase 'The Daily Soup' cookbook.

The first recipe that caught my eye was the Jamaican Pumpkin Soup recipe and it turned out pretty tasty if I do say so. Unfortunately since fresh pumpkins are not in season I had to go with the canned variety but it still turned out good. I recommend serving this with crostini's (garlic and oil is the best).

It was a pretty simple soup to make and you can see the steps from my photos below. (In order to get the recipe though you will need to pick up the book ;-))

Enjoy!
