This creamy parmesan pumpkin soup is perfect for the whole family, even if you have some who aren’t pumpkin lovers such as myself. It has a more mild pumpkin flavor than a lot of other pumpkin soups so it is not overwhelming.
Creamy, rich, and filling this soup is the perfect accompaniment to any cool fall evening. Served with crusty bread or crackers it makes for a delicious meal any night of the week or even to serve on Thanksgiving. I love making soup as an addition to our Thanksgiving meals in cute little festive bowls. Its a quick and easy crowd pleaser.
I like to add a sprinkle of nutmeg to the top before serving, (it just adds a little something to the flavor).Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Shannon says
11/01/2016 at 4:17 pmI read many, many comments that say it “looks yummy” but very few who actually tried it. Those are the most useful comments when considering a new recipe. I tried it for a house full of Halloween guests. It did not work well. Mostly a strong garlic flavor. Very little anything else. Too bad I tripled the recipe for the party. I ended up running to the deli for premade soup to serve. Oh well. Fun night anyway. Everyone has different tastes. Thanks.
Cindy H says
10/08/2017 at 6:06 pmI love this soup. When fall comes around each year, it seems I can’t get enough pumpkin. This is one of my favorites with all the cheese in it. I don’t skimp on the cheese. Even my picky husband likes it! Thank you for the reciepe. This ones a keeper
Marysa says
10/09/2017 at 8:36 pmYumm, that sounds really good.. a little sweet and a little salty.. buttery and cheesy.. perfect for a chilly fall evening!
