Slow Cooker Pumpkin Cheddar Soup with Chorizo - 10.68g Carbs, 2.46g Fiber

From: alldayidreamaboutfood.com
A creamy, velvety pumpkin soup with a Southwestern kick. This healthy low carb soup is rich enough to be the meal! Easy to make in your slow cooker or on your stovetop.
Servings: 6
Serving Size: About 1 cup

1/2 onion, minced
15 oz can pumpkin puree
4 cups chicken broth (preferably homemade)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp chipotle powder (or more to taste, if you like it spicy. We do!)
1/4 tsp black pepper
6 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, grated (I recommend Cabot Farmhouse Reserve)
1 lb chorizo or other spicy sausage, cooked and crumbled
Salt and pepper, to taste

Add onion, pumpkin puree, chicken broth, salt, cumin, garlic powder, chipotle powder and pepper to a large slow cooker. Stir well and cook on low for 4 hours or on high for 2 hours.

Add shredded cheese and let melt, then blend soup with an immersion blender or transfer to a large blender or food processor (you may need to work in batches).

Spoon into bowls and sprinkle each with chorizo.

You can also make this recipe on the stove, in a large saucepan or stockpot. Simply simmer the ingredients from the first step for 20 minutes or so before adding the cheese and blending.
