Best Curried Pumpkin Soup
I whipped this up for my family on Thanksgiving, and everyone was crazy about it! Even my brother, who is one of the pickiest eaters I know, asked for seconds of this curry pumpkin soup. —Kimberly Knepper, Euless, Texas

Fabulous soup. I add chopped chicken apple sausage to the onions and mushrooms. Adds a bit more texture and flavor to the soup. Quite yummy.
Delicious! I replaced evaporated milk with coconut milk and it turned out amazing.
By far one of the best soups we’ve had!!
Tasted great and was wry simple to make. I left out honey I don't like sweet soup tasted even better the next day
this is my new favorite soup.... it is SO tasty and different to your usual pumpkin soup. I used mashed butternut squash instead of canned pumpkin and pureed it with my hand blender to make it smooth, wow it's so delicious and satisfying!
i have been making this every Christmas since I saw the recipe in an old Taste of Home magazine. It has become our most traditional Christmas dish. No matter what I make as a main dish, this soup makes an appearance. From Prime Rib, Crown Roast of pork to Cornish Game Hens (this year's entree), this soup is a winner.
It would be rated 5 stars, but i doubled the honey, doubled the salt, AND added sugar... with these modifications, this soup could be served at Olive Garden. Delicious! Thanks TOH!
I made a double and added chunks of ham!

I did a mash-up of this recipe and a Weight Watchers recipe. I omitted the mushrooms (not a fan) and the evaporated milk, instead opting for using one 15oz can of drained and rinsed Navy Beans, and swapped the veggie broth with chicken broth (as I had no veggie broth on hand). When the soup was cooked, we pureed the soup in small batches to give it a "creamy" consistency closer to what it would have had with the milk. Loved the flavor profile - perfect blend of savory and sweet with just enough spicy kick...will definitely be sure to try the soup with the evaporated milk at least one time to compare!
