How to make Roasted Pumpkin Soup
You just need a few main ingredients to make this recipe:
Pumpkin –Fresh pumpkin makes this soup special. Pick an orange pumpkin and cut it open to remove the flesh. Remove the pumpkin seeds in order to get to the "meat" of the pumpkin. Cut the flesh carefully away from the skin. You do not want the skin in this recipe.
Onion – I prefer using white or purple onion for this recipe, but you can use yellow onion too. Peel away the outer layer prior to cutting in quarters.
Cream– You can use heavy cream or half and half to make this recipe. You can also use coconut milk instead of cream.

It's just gorgeous. I love both cream and coconut milk (both are good for my low carb pregnancy diet) and I do love the pepitas and sour cream. And thanks for having nutrition information! It really helps me.
