Dukan Pumpkin Soup or Dukan Halloween Soup
250 grams or approximately 2 cups pumpkin flesh (cut into small cubes or pieces)
1 onion
2 cups skim milk (500 ml)
2 carrots
1 pinch of cinnamon
1 pinch of salt
Pepper
Cut the pumpkin into small squares. Peel the onion and carrots and cut into small slices. Add the vegetables to skim milk in a pot on the stovetop along with the pinch of cinnamon. Cook for about a half an hour until the pumpkin is smooth. Mix and heat again for about a half hour, adding water to desired consistency. Add salt and pepper to taste. Either eat with veggie chunks or put in a food processor or blender and blend to a creamy consistency. (Blending is recommended for a cream texture)
