I picked up this recipe at my local grocery store during a promotion for creative ways to use pumpkin. Black beans are not usually paired with this hearty fall vegetable, but once I tried this soup, I was a believer! Now it’s one of my favorite recipes to make when pumpkin is in season. —Lori Karavolis, McMurray, PA
