Vitamix Instant Vegan Pumpkin Soup
8
It is the last day of our official Vitamix Recipe Center celebration, and we end with this fabulous Instant Vegan Pumpkin Soup. I say "instant" because this recipe utilizes canned pumpkin. Now, normally I don't use canned vegetables in any of my recipes. However, this recipe is a healthy lifesaver if you come home and don't have much in your fridge! You can whip up this tasty meal with ingredients in your panty in minutes.
I also thought it timely that I post this this recipe leading into the holiday season as it is a fantastic way to use those leftover cans of pumpkin. Making soups in your Vitamix is so quick and easy! Check out my Soups Video on the Vitamix website.
There are some delicious soup recipes in the Vitamix Recipe Center. Some of my favourites are the: Almond Leek Soup, Black Bean Soup, Mediterranean Soup, and the Cold Nectarine Dessert Soup. Also check out my Cream Of Cauliflower Soup, Cream of Spinach Soup, Roasted Butternut Squash Soup, Roasted Sweet Potato Soup, and Lemon Asparagus Soup.
Making soups in your Vitamix is a whole new experience because you get a gorgeous creamy texture. I just don't know what I would do without that phenomenal machine. Presenting the Vitamix Videos really was a dream job for me. I am so proud of my partnership with them, and was so thrilled we could celebrate my involvement in their new website with this month of recipes from their Recipe Center, and the fantastic giveaway of the new Vitamix 750 Professional Series.
Don't miss out on your chance to get your hands on this fabulous machine. We have three days left! Entries close at 11.59 EST on September 30th. I will announce the winner on my Facebook page on Monday. I can't wait to announce the lucky winner :)
Thanks Vitamix. WHAT would we do without you?

Piggy Cooking Tips
a quick easy way to clean this “cling-on” pieces out of your garlic press
If you are using a garlic press to mince your garlic you will know how hard they can to clean sometimes. There are always a few little stubborn bits that refuse to let go of the garlic party. Next time you are replacing your toothbrush (I replace mine about once a month) recycle it and then wash it. Keep it under the sink to scrub out your garlic press under running water to help remove those little cling on pieces.

Piggy Grunts!
Add Your GruntOh, I know what I’m making for dinner tonight! This sounds YUMMY!!
Thanks!
Can I just use any blender for this? I have the Ninja! I can’t afford the vitamix at this time :(.
Thank you! love your recipes!!
Yes, you can use any blender for this recipe. The consistency will vary according to the power of the machine. Most blenders won’t cook it either. Just blend and then heat on the stove top. Enjoy :)
Thanks for your lovely comment too. I really appreciate it.
What do you suggest in place of the coconut sugar for this recipe? Coconut oil, or just omit it?
Sorry for the delay in responding to this Pamela. I was travelling speaking and teaching, and things just got on top of me. I saw on FB that you already made this.
You can use any sweetener you like in this recipe or just leave it out all together. Enjoy :)
