Moroccan Pumpkin Soup

This delicious Moroccan Pumpkin Soup recipe is quick to make from simple ingredients and tastes divine. You simply can’t go wrong when you combine the flavors of pumpkin with Moroccan Spice Mix. Make sure you make your own spice mix from scratch as it’s really simple to do and helps make give this dish it’s delicious Moroccan flavor.

So Easy To Make

To make this soup, simply  throw all of the ingredients for this recipe into a pot and boil till soft, puree the soup and add some yogurt and voila….dinner is ready. Make sure you use Kent/Japanese or Kabocha pumpkin, which are simply different names for the same vegetable, as it is lower in carbs than other pumpkin. Butternut pumpkin is very sweet and quite high in carbs so avoid if watching your carbs. If you don’t have any yogurt to add to the soup after pureeing, you could use sour cream or pouring cream in it’s place. It won’t impact on the flavor at all.

This recipe is ideal for anyone generally trying to reduce the carbs and sugar in their life. It’s a great recipe for diabetics, celiacs, those with gluten intolerance, and for anyone following a low carb, keto or lchf way of eating.
