    Just made this for the 2nd Halloween in a row. It's quick to put together and is a great way to make something using canned pumpkin. It's plenty rich with 1/2 & 1/2...I think I'll drop it down a notch or 2 fat-wise and try whole milk or even 2% next time. The hot sauce works surprisingly well, and I love the relish! Thanks Rachel!

    I made this tonight instead of the usual halloween chili! It is really great! The trick to this soup is to season throughout cookiing. a little cinnamon at the end is a wonderul finish. I did not make the relish, but made bread sticks instead. This is not a quick soup, so take time to let it cook and the flavors will marry.

    I should start by saying that I am crazy about soup, I am crazy about pumpkin, and I am crazy about Rachel Ray's thirty minute meals. I am not, however, crazy about this soup.

    The soup itself was just okay. I will not make it again. I will eat it, though. The relish was simply awful. I love all of the ingredients, so why wouldn't I like the relish? I think the raw red onion was just overpowering. So, I am managing to eat the soup (reluctantly, but without the relish. Right now, I am sauteeing the relish with butter and I'm going to attempt to make some stuffing out of it, because I hate to waste it, but really, the whole thing was a shocking disappointment.

    I used vegetable stock instead of chicken stock. I also added more seasonings. This soup is so delicious and what a great contrast of flavorings with the relish.

    What a great soup! The one thing to keep in mind is that the instructions don't enlighten much about how to season it (which is why some of the reviewers complain that the soup is bland. The soup is best if made ahead to let the flavors marry. It's a high maintenance soup, but worth it. It needs to be seasoned throughout. I even added gloves, cinnamon and more hot sauce to give it the kick it needed. Used half of the heavy cream. Relish is delish. Adds a crunchiness and allows all the flavors to pop in your mouth. It all just needs to be executed effectively.

    I was honestly hesitant to make this, and the only reason I did was because of all the positive reviews. To me pumpkin soup just didn't sound like something you would have as a meal....I was VERY wrong. This soup is phenomenal. I made it over the weekend, and will probably be making it again this week because we can't get enough of it! Delicious and so easy!

    I am not one to EVER rate something 5 stars, but this recipe fit the bill! My husband (who is spoiled and a complete food critic loved this soup. He went to work and raved about it. When I mentioned it, he went on and on about it. My boss loved it and plans to make it at Thanksgiving. My parents both thought it was great. A definate addition to my soup recipe book...will make again and again!!

    I thought this soup was just okay. All I had on hand was a Gala apple, so maybe a Granny Smith would have been better. As another reviewer suggested, I ended up making a roux and thickening it to make a pasta sauce and added chicken. I don't plan to make it again.

    This soup is creamy and so flavorful. I was concerned about the pumpkin and hot sauce combo but they compliment each other beautifully. The relish is a MUST, it really finishes off the dish. Thanks Rachel!
