It's official. September is here! It's Pumpkin season! Time to make everything PUMPKIN! (Too much?... I'll try to tone it down some, but I can't make any promises...) I love pumpkin, as you've probably already guessed.  It's great in desserts and coffee and lattes and breakfasts. But don't forget good ol' savory pumpkin too! Like in this super easy, healthy AND delicious Spicy Southwest Pumpkin Soup.

There is literally no prep work, and this particular recipe is pumpkin soup without cream.  I don't usually cook vegan, but this recipe is also a vegan pumpkin soup recipe with canned pumpkin, making it cheap AND easy.

Now the trick to using pumpkin (and other traditionally sweet squashes, like butternut) is salt. Don't be shy with the salt.  If you feel like your Spicy Southwest Pumpkin Soup is tasting kind of meh, it probably needs more salt. So salt it until you hit the sweet spot!

Any other fellow pumpkin lovers out there? Tell me your favorites for pumpkin season in the comments!

    This came out really good! We made it for freezer meals for when baby comes in two weeks, but had to stop and have some for lunch, first. My only critique is that after an hour of simmering, the consistency and taste still seemed REALLY off. We then decided to double the pumpkin (I had another can of the same size on hand, luckily). As soon as I added the second can it automatically thickened to a normal consistency and tasted awesome. We look forward to having it with some of that crusty bread!
