There you'll find several pumpkin soup recipes with bacon in them; however whenever I think 'pumpkin soup' my first thought is Kumara, Pumpkin and Peanut Soup - a very easy to make and very tasty/yummy soup - you can find that recipe at:-

My favourite recipe is purplegonnas roasted pumpkin, garlic and bacon one. I like the intense flavour which i put down to the roasting of the pumpkin and heaps of garlic which makes it sweeter. Love it with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of parsley and warm crusty bread. Its on the page of the link above 245sam has posted for you, every winter it gets great raves on the M/B.
