Chunky Asian Coconut Pumpkin Soup

FullSizeRender (1)

Soup soup soup, I feel like I consume that many bowls of it during the winter months… It is seriously the best meal though as you can pack a bowl full with lots of veggies, turmeric, ginger, chilli and all sorts of other immune boosters.

I love creamy pumpkin soup made with coconut milk and have this a lot however sometimes I feel like a soup that is a little lighter so I have been experimenting with use coconut water  instead and I am loving it! My favourite coconut water to use is Natural Raw C as it is 100% natural coconut water sourced from young, green coconuts with no added sugar, sodium or any other nasties.

Try it out for yourself and let me know what you think!
