Has Anyone Made Pumpkin Soup



Recommended Posts

:rolleyes:I am in my 3rd week after Lap Banding. I am on soft diet, yogurt,sf pudding, sf Jello, thin creamed Soups, protein shakes.< p>I bought a can of pumpkin and would like to make pumpkin Soup. Has anyone made pumpkin soup? Help!!!!:rolleyes

I make a great pumpkin soup that is sweet yet savory. It is Emeril's recipe. Google it by typing in Emeril pumpkin soup. It uses a chicken stock base and has Peanut Butter in it (as a thickener), so make sure it is the right recipe. I took it to a bonfire one year and served it in an actual pumpkin. YUM!

Oh yes, I take a carton of Velish pumpkin Soup or some homemade pumpkin soup (cut up a butternut pumpkin - you guys call it butternut squash I think - chicken stock, onion, its too easy) and add a huge dollop of Peanut Butter, some sour cream and a good amount of curry powder. I got that recipe here and it is sooooooo good. I make it all the time, it'd be perfect for thicker liquids.< /p>

No, but I love it. I went on a cruise for my preop diet...knew I'd crack if I tried to do it at home...being a food addict.

The first night at dinner, we had pumpkin Soup for the soup. WOW! I loved it. So I had 3 bowls, instead of the main course.

I guess I need to get a recipe for that one!

Lessenless, Thank you for the tip about the black bean/pumpkin Soup. I went to that site, made a copy and made the soup last nite. Very, very good and interesting--kind of a southwest-mex type soup. Loved it and I will be making it again I'm sure.. Victoria52

Ok - OMG - I had this for the first time the other day and it was SOO good. Nice and hearty, but more like a dessert.</.

It was at our local organic grocery store. The listed ingredients were "pumpkin, heavy whipping cream" but there was other stuff in it, I could see the seasonings & seeds or whatever they were.

I went back the same day and bought a big container to take home for dinner (it was the Soup on the salad bar). They haven't had it since. :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
