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. :)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
