    I don’t know, pumpkin isn’t too expensive on special. Chicken isn’t too bad when drumsticks are on special. A poor soup is still pretty cheap. But a fancy one with tons of ingredients? absolutely.

      Pumpkin is not the only ingredient. There is cream, cheese, a stock cube or stock, onion, garlic, black pepper, salt, carrot, potato, turmeric

      minestrone with meat balls costs me $25 to make and a solid 1 hour of work , makes about 15 big serves

              For pumpkin soup I follow Margaret Fulton’s recipe which is onion, pumpkin, bit of flour, stock, warm milk and butter. Toppings: cream or sour cream, chives, coriander, chilli or bacon. For extras: potato, cumin, nutmeg, thai curry, ginger, garlic etc. I rarely use butternut. I use whatever pumpkin is the cheapest.
