In my mind, Fall is synonymous with pumpkins and squashes. I love these colorful, creamy soups, and adding some curry really spices it up. It’s good without it, but if you like a little kick, give this recipe a try! It’s super quick to make, seasonal, beautiful, and so delicious. I double the recipe, so we have enough for leftovers. Happy autumn!

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium to large onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, diced
  • ½ tablespoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 2 cups low sodium vegetable broth
  • 1 ½ cups or 1 can pre-cooked pumpkin
  • ¼ cup cashews
  • 2-4 dates for sweetness
  • 5 ounces or 1 bunch kale, stems removed and chopped

Directions:

  1. Saute onion and garlic with a few tablespoons of water until tender (5-10 minutes)
  2. Add curry powder and dried parsley and stir to coat.
