Recently I was treated to something I never would have dreamed I'd be trying, a
Whole Pumpkin Soup. Rachel used the last pumpkin from my son's garden and
Alton Brown's Recipe and made a very nice seasonal soup! An added bonus, it has goat cheese melted into it so
technically... I can cross goat cheese off of my new foods list too! The soup is adaptable to use what you have on hand, Rachel subbed a little sour cream for the heavy cream and she does recommend adding extra garlic. I did pick up some sweetness and a little tang and found this to be a very nice meal.
The addition of turkey sausage, peas and pasta turned the little bit leftover into a nice lunch too.
Alton's recipe can be found
HERE.
And Um, I seem to have lost my Bloggy MoJo... Case in point, this pie that's truly a bad hair day if I ever saw one...
So, until things start working out in the kitchen again-
I'll see ya when I see ya:@)
Eat well and have a happy day!
