Mixing spicy chorizo and shrimp into the creamy rice and veggie puree makes for a delicious new spin on a classic. Good, toasted bread is the only side you need.

30-60 minutes
ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup peeled and chopped carrot
1/3 cup chopped celery
1/4 cup uncooked white rice
1/4 teaspoon saffron threads, crushed
1/2 cup dry white wine
4 cups chicken stock
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 pound large uncooked shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 ounces Spanish chorizo sausage, cut into thin rounds
1 cup peas, fresh or defrosted frozen peas
1/2 cup diced cooked chicken
2 teaspoons chopped fresh chives
directions
Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, and celery. Cook, stirring frequently, for 4-5 minutes or until soft.
Add the rice, saffron, wine, chicken stock, and salt. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and let cook for 20 minutes.
Remove the pan from the heat and uncover. Let cool for 10 minutes. Puree the soup using an immersion blender or transfer to a blender or food processor and then return the soup to the pan.
Stir the cream into the soup and place the pan over medium-low heat. When the soup just starts to come to a simmer, add the shrimp, sausage, peas, and chicken. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3-5 minutes or until the shrimp is cooked. Do not overcook.
Serve the paella soup hot, sprinkled with chopped fresh chives.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
