Slow Cooker Pumpkin Bacon Soup Recipe

October 18, 2020

A savory soup that uses everyone’s favorite fall ingredient—pumpkin!

If you’re like me, you’ve seen a million pumpkin desserts floating around the internet these days. Not that there’s anything wrong with that…but how about making something savory with our favorite orange vegetable? (It is a vegetable, right?)

This pumpkin bacon soup is comfort in a bowl. It has bacon (I know), cream, Parmesan, and lots of seasonings to keep you warm on those crisp fall evenings. Serve the soup topped with bacon crumbles and roasted pumpkin seeds and a side of warm french bread slathered in butter and you’re set.
