Pumpkin broccoli soup

Pumpkin in the fridge and the freezer

Pumpkin is nature’s autumn gift, and it can be preserved for much longer! Did you know that a pumpkin can be preserved for 6 up to 12 months? But if the pumpkin is cut, you can store it in the fridge for up to one week. However, a pumpkin that’s been cut can also be placed in the freezer, in pieces or grated (depending on how you plan to use it), and stay in deep freeze for a year, ready to be cooked!

Pumpkin broccoli soup

If you do have a large pumpkin in your possession, you can use it in many recipes, for breakfast, main meals, snacks, and desserts! This magical orange vegetable is a multitool in the kitchen and most pumpkin recipes that I’ve uploaded as of now can be made with just a single yellow pumpkin! You could try, say, the savoury pumpkin cake, or the pumpkin pancakes!

Pumpkin broccoli soup

This recipe was created when I had quite a bit of pumpkin and one broccoli, and I couldn’t decide which of the two to use. So, I decided to combine them, and since the little hands love soups, the idea was born for this delicious velvet soup!
