Pumpkin Soup
A creamy and soothing soup for a chilly evening - love having this when the leaves start falling! I use a small green pumpkin for this - not sure what type it is. (Not a big orange one though!)

In a small stew pot, sauté onions and garlic in the vegetable oil. Put in the pumpkin and sprinkle with salt. Add enough water to cover the pumpkin and cook on medium until the pumpkin is soft and tender. (To check, poke it with a fork!) When done, turn off heat and use a hand mixer to blend to a soup consistency. Ladle into bowl and add cream to desired taste.
