My DH won't eat it if it tastes like pumpkin so I found one that is not that strong in pumpkin flavor.

Half a butternut pumpkin
2 or 3 potatoes
1 carrot
3 to 4 cups of water
4 teaspoons chicken stock
250 g cream
salt and pepper

- Peel and chop veg and boil in water and stock until soft.
- Bar mix everything together
- Add salt and pepper to taste
- Stir in cream (do not reboil after cream is added).
- Serve with crusty bread and a dollop of sour cream/cream

I make this at least once a week and even extra to freeze for DS for lunch etc.
