Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 40 minutes
Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients
1 medium sugar pumpkin (about 3 lbs.), peeled, seeded, and cut into chunks.
3 tablespoons of olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped.
2 cloves garlic, minced.
1 teaspoon of fresh thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg
4 cups of vegetable stock
1 cup of heavy cream
Salt and pepper to taste
50 mg of CBD oil
Instructions
- Warm up the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, cooking until soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic, thyme, and nutmeg, stirring until the garlic is fragrant.
- Add the pumpkin chunks to the pot, stirring to combine with the aromatics. Cook for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the pumpkin begins to soften.
- Pour in the vegetable stock, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Let it simmer until the pumpkin is completely soft.
- Once the pumpkin is soft, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth.
- Stir in the heavy cream, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Once the soup is heated through, remove it from heat. Stir in the CBD oil, making sure it is well combined.
- Serve the soup warm, perhaps with a rustic, crusty bread on the side.
