Pumpkin soup is a quintessential winter warmer and this Moroccan Pumpkin and Chickpea Soup is a new spin on the beloved classic.  This recipe can be made from everyday cupboard ingredients, you can easily whip this up for dinner at a moment’s notice.  I love to have a few tins of pumpkin in the cupboard for when I am in the mood for a delicious hearty soup.

Why you’ll love this recipe….


Looking to take this soup to work?

My dad actually recommended this product after he started his weight loss journey. He is obsessed with homemade soup (and his soup maker may I add..) and he was desperate to take soup to work. His company is tight and wouldn’t fork out for a microwave so he invested in this awesome soup thermos. It will keep food hot for up to 6 hours! Perfect for soup, porridge, curry etc.
