Spicy Chipotle-Pumpkin Soup.

After feeling like I was coming down with something over the weekend, I've unfortunately today been hit hard by this nasty flu bug going around--and boy, I mean hard. It's rough--but vegan food always helps! And this soup sure did...temporarily at least! I made my bowl SUPER SPICY to try to "decongest" myself...but feel free to cut back on the chipotle powder. Otherwise, this is a lovely and super quick soup that is great for lunch or dinner--sick OR well! Enjoy!
