Yummy Slow Cooker Pumpkin Soup

This is a great meal option when yoou have been given a pumpkin and not sure what to do with it. You can only eat so much pumpkin so why not make delicious pumpkin soup in youir slow cooker.

So easy to prep the night before going off to bed. Just cut up your ingredients and place in the fridge overnight, then before going off to work in the morning, quickly fry up the bacon and onion (I cheat some times and do it in the microwave) then place all ingredients in your crock pot and “voila” dinner is ready when you get home.

Don’t forget to hit it with your stick blender to make it a nice, smooth and creamy consistency. Have you tried our Slow Cooker Vege & Barley Soup over here yet?
