Spicy West Indian Pumpkin Soup-May 01

[misstapioca]

It was good, also very easy. I used 2 habaneros chopped in this recipe for the perfect amount of heat. I did not have access to Calabaza pumpkin so i used a Butternut squash instead. I love these type of recipes that is only veggie. For 2 cups of this soup was only 4 WW points and i counted it as 2 veggies.

I tried this soup the other night. I looked in four different stores in my area and could not find a single habanero or Scotch bonnet (must be a shortage in Minneapolis-St. Paul), so I used jalapeno and doubled the amount. It was the right amount of heat for us and the soup was very easy to make (esp with a hand blender). However, we have a Raichlen squash soup that we prefer, although I may try adding more heat to that one.

Made this spicy pumpking soup for Father's Day and it was delicious. Not hot at all when made with 1 habenero pepper.
