    Thank you! I mean, it’s a “liquid salad”, didn’t think to add any sides :)

    I just toasted some bread, which the kids broke into little pieces and used as croutons.

    I personally don’t eat pumpkin, so I wouldn’t know if it needed anything else :D

    If I were to make a side dish, I think something like roasted veggies, or a simple green salad. Or maybe something with apples and pine nuts and cheese… hmm…

      Just curious, I bet it was really filling on its own without the need of anything else. Once again, awesome presentation. Makes me crave some, and I’ve never had it before haha 👌
