WebMD Recipe

The mashed potato adds creaminess to this lower-fat soup.

Ingredients

3 cups
mashed potatoes, made with low-fat milk
1/2 cup
canned pumpkin
1 1/2 cups
fat-free half-and-half, or low-fat milk
1 1/2 cups
shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese
3/4 teaspoon
pumpkin pie spice
1/2 teaspoon
ground cinnamon
5 tablespoons
fat-free or light sour cream
pepper, to taste
salt, to taste (optional)

Instructions

Prepare mashed potatoes using milk only (no added butter). Add the pumpkin and fat-free half-and-half (or low-fat milk) to a medium saucepan; whisk to blend well.
Add cheese, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon and stir to combine. Cover pan and simmer over low heat for 5-10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add pepper and salt, if desired.
Spoon into five serving bowls, then swirl a tablespoon of fat-free or light sour cream in each bowl of soup.
