Mummy’s Fast & Easy

Do you guys, like me, love pumpkin soup? What about shrimp?
And what about combining both of them together? 
I assure you, the combination tastes amazing!

As you can see, this is not just a regular pumpkin soup – it is pumpkin and shrimp soup.
The recipe is not much different than the regular pumpkin soup, I just added some shrimp and chives on top. But this is what made the soup different –  this is kind of an upgraded version!

Here’s what you need.

Preparation:
  1. Place the veggies in a pot with salted water (as much as to cover the veggies) and bring to the boil. Cook for about 30 minutes or until they are nice and soft so you can blend them.
  2. Put the pot aside and let the veggies cool down for a while.
  3. Work them with a hand blender. If the mixture is too thick add some hot water while the soup is still hot.
  4. To serve – drizzle some cream, fold in the cheese(as much as you like), garnish with the shrimp and chopped chives.
Enjoy!
