Always a part of my Indian meals. My vegetarian friends really like this one. I've not timed the making so times are a guesstimate. Australian measurements used.

PUMPKIN, SAUSAGE, AND SAGE SOUP



Pumpkin, Sausage, and Sage Soup image

I wanted a simple pumpkin soup that used ingredients I had on hand - nothing weird that I'd have to shop for. This hits the spot! I started from another recipe and modified to fit my pantry and favorite flavors, like sage!

CREAMY SPICED PUMPKIN

In cold weather, this is where "indulgent" and "nourishing" meet. Wonderful for breakfast, a snack, or even a healthy dessert! (Adapted from a recipe by Jennifer of "The Vegan Lunchbox".)

Time 3m

Yield 1 bowlful, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup cooked pumpkin, mashed or 1 cup canned pumpkin
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 -2 tablespoon brown sugar
1/8-1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 pinch nutmeg
1 tablespoon smooth almond butter (equally delicious here) or 1 tablespoon smooth cashew butter (equally delicious here)

Steps:

  • Stir together in a microwave-safe dish the first 5 ingredients.
  • Microwave 1-1/2 min., just until hot- time will vary by machine of course.
  • Stir in the nut butter until well- combined.
  • Adjust the spices and sugar if desired. Serve immediately.
  • Here's a yummy variation: Soak a tablespoon or two of raisins overnight in the juice; when preparing dish, add raisins and a few sprinkles of pumpkin pie spices such as ginger and allspice.
  • Please note, as well, that you can use any type of winter squash for this. I love it with sweet butternut squash especially. Jennifer's original used sweet potato- also wonderful!
