Savory Pumpkin Recipes

I found this pumpkin cheese soup with cranberries on Foodbuzz, the recipe is from Art Epicure and can be found here ( http://artepicure.blogspot.com/2008/09/pumpkin-tim... ).  It was delicious!  I did not have cheddar but used only the parmesean, and also added a generous amount of pumpkin pie spice.   You may gain a pound but it is highly recommended!

 My husband and I love to make this pasta with a pumpking pasta ( http://katelynsfood.blogspot.com/2008/09/pumpkin-p... ). It has lots of rosemary, sage & parmesan. Very yummy and comforting. 

I like pumpkin. I like curry. I think I want pumpkin curry. Thanks for the recipe!

Don't worry, I think I'm going to have to have a round two of pumpkin soup recipes (along with a round two of savory recipes because a lot of people have sent me links) and I'll feature yours.

Speaking of pumpkin curry, I just posted my recipe on my site:

I LOVE cooking with pumpkin this time of year.  Pumpkins are great for baking and cooking because you can use them for many recipes at once.  Cube up half the pumpkin for stir-fry, puree the other half for baking, and then toast the seeds for a nutritious snack!

 I have been craving pumpkin lately. Last year I had this awesome pumpkin curry at a dinner party. I need to hunt down the recipe.

I love pumpkin recipes... from soups and chowders to pumpkin bars and cakes. The house always smells divine- spicy and warm.

An old favorite (and super easy) soup recipe:

So if you blogged this recipe, send me the link please.

There are TONS of pumpkin soup recipes and I can't get excited about them because I don't eat soup. So I need bloggers who love soup to help me out. :-)

I always have frozen chicken stock in the freezer, so I took some out, thawed it and added a large chopped onion, a lot of chopped dill, and a few cut up carrots. When all was mushy-done I added cooked fresh pumpkin (I had cooked it by taking a small sugar pumpkin, washing, removing the handle, piercing a few times with a fork and microwaving til done. Let the pumpkin cool, cut it open , remove seeds and peel and voila -- easy cooked pumpkin. )

Anyway, I added that, salt and pepper to the stock and veggies and blended it all together with an immersion blender.

It is fast and fun.

For a variation, add less chicken stock and substitute fat free half and half for liquid. Add cooked diced potatoes for a chowdery soup. Serve (using as a tureen) in a fresh raw pumpkin that has had the seeds removed.
