Method
Cook potatoes in water until soft through to a fork's touch. (Do the same if using fresh pumpkin; cook separately.) Drain and puree with a food processor, blender, mixer, or by hand. Add some chicken broth while pureeing (process 30-45 seconds with food processor). Transfer to large saucepan and add all remaining ingredients except paprika. Simmer 5 minutes and garnish servings with a dash of paprika. Serve with crackers.
Notes: Note: Perfect with Thanksgiving dinners. It's not too sweet or too filling.
Number of Servings: 8
