CBD Pumpkin Curry Soup
(Vegan, Gluten-Free)
Warm, slightly spicy soup is a quintessential fall staple. Embrace nature’s seasonal rhythms with this nourishing pumpkin curry soup, which contains 60 an optional milligrams of CBD oil. Cozy nights in just got even more relaxing. This soup is simple enough for a weeknight meal, but sophisticated enough to grace the holiday dinner table.
Tips:
-Be sure to buy 100% canned pumpkin puree, (not pumpkin pie filling, which is sweeter and has spices and other additives).
-Curry powders vary widely in heat and flavor profile. Try several to find your favorite
-Fresh pumpkin can be used. It has more moisture than canned, so reduce the amount of broth to 2 cups and then increase as needed. Fresh pumpkin should be roasted or steamed, then cooled to handling temperature before being scraped from skins. Proceed with recipe as written.
-The warm, bold flavors of this soup render the CBD oil nearly undetectable.
-Always label foods & beverages that are enriched with CBD.
