Good with a few changes...
I substituted a few ingredients in the recipe as we don't eat a lot of dairy products. I used olive oil instead of the butter to cook the vegetables. I also used a 14 ounce can of unsweetened coconut milk in place of the evaporated milk. I added 1/2 teaspoon of curry, as well as two chicken boullion cubes (I dissolved the cubes in 1/2 cup boiling water before I added it to the soup). Everyone enjoyed the soup & I will make it again!!!

A Tasty Surprise
I had never thought of mixing pumpkin and peanut butter together and made it into a soup before. It turned out to be a tasty surprise. I added a pinch of salt and curry to it just to spice it up a little. This will be one of the staples of my hearty, winter meal.

Tasty and quick
I made this for dinner tonight and it was a big hit! The peanutty flavor was a good twist. I spiced it up with about 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne and it was tasty.

Easy and Fast
This is a great way to add fiber in your diet --and it is so tasty. I did use chunky peanut butter and added a few sprinkles of hot sauce. Yummy.
