Our costumes have been ordered, heaps of candy is being purchased, and our trick or treating plans are being made. We are thrilled about Halloween being in just a few weeks.
My husband and I have our costumes based off an upcoming birthday party that has a 80’s & 90’s theme. It’s going to be so fun!
It is still quite hot here in Florida but we are enjoying the temps cool off a bit, especially in th emornign and at night. That’s good enough for me to be soup weather.
Spider Web Soup (Roasted Pumpkin Tomato Soup)
This Spider Web Soup is perfect for Halloween because it gives spooky vibes with the spider web accent on top. And it’s perfect to warm yo up on those cooler fall days.
Start the soup by quartering 3 pounds of plum tomatoes and thinly slicing 1 onion. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning, salt & pepper. Then soat with a generous amount of olive oil.
Recipe Note:
Compared to other tomato soups I make, I keep the seasoning minimally in this soup so that it is a bit sweeter and lets the pumpkin shine through. For example, I specially left out garlic and didn’t add much Italian seasoning or salt to the recipe. Of course, you can adjust seasoning to your own preferences!
Roast the tomatoes and onion for 1 hours at 425F. Stir occasionally so it doesn’t burn in any one spot. The tomatoes will be slightly charred and very soft. The onions will be nicely carnalized too.
Do not immediately transfer the hot tomatoes to a blender, let them cool for a bit. This, along with blending small batches, will help prevent it from exploding out of your blender. Alternatively, you can use an immersion blender.
Once the tomatoes are blended, add the pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling!) and the chicken broth.
Let the soup simmer for about 15 minute prior to serving.
Make the soup super spooky for Halloween by making a spider web on top. Add sour cream to a small sandwich bag, cut the tiniest bit off one of the corners so you can pipe the sour cream.
Finish it off with a piece of olive to represent a spider. Spooky and yummy!
Enjoy this warm, comforting Spider Web Soup before you go Trick or Treating. This Roasted Tomato Pumpkin Soup will give you loads of energy to have you ready to carry around BIG bags full of candy! Yay!
