Wanted: Easy Soup Recipes

[Sieko]

I made this once (in a pot) and it was really tasty...and I don't like pumpkin much.  I don't see why it couldn't be done in a crock pot.  I love chives and added some to the soup while cooking, as well as a garnish.

Pumpkin Soup

Ingredients:
1 cup mashed, cooked pumpkin (I used canned)
2 1/2 cup chicken broth
1 Tbsp flour
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp ground ginger
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
1 cup evaporated milk
1 tsp instant minced onion (I recommend fresh onion...minced gives it a funky texture)
2 large eggs, beaten

Chopped chives


Method

Combine pumpkin and 2 cups chicken stock in a saucepan or double boiler.

Mix flour with salt and spices. Add 1/2 cup chicken stock and flour mix to make a smooth paste.

Add milk and eggs. Stir into pumpkin mixture. Cook 5 minutes over low heat or hot water, stirring constantly.

Serve garnished with chopped chives.
