Sounds absolutely wonderful! I love pumpkin soup, and the idea of using coconut milk. (Beautiful photos, too!)
Tina
What a great idea! I have made soups with pumpkin before but not with coconut milk. I’m going to have to try this, thanks for sharing:)
Joanna @ Everyday Made Fresh
This soup has such a lovely color to it. A great bread is always a must with a soup!
Jacque
These flavors together sound amazing! I think I’ll make this soon. And, those rolls look fabulous! I’ll keep an eye out for them.
Beth
Those rolls look delicious! They are par baked? I buy par baked breads from a local restaurant supply store and they taste like fresh bread without all of the hassle! I’ve never seen Rhodes I’ll have to check for them. The soup is gorgeous, as well!
Kate Veggie Desserts
Such a great sounding soup! And those rolls look delicious.
Garlic + Zest
What a wonderful combo of flavors in that soup! Coconut and pumpkin sounds both savory and sweet. Love that you’ve got those easy rolls to go with the soup too. I love homemade bread, but don’t have the patience/skill to pull it off all the time.

I grew up making these rolls into cinnamon rolls. I think that was my entry into baking! They would be perfect with that beautiful soup.
Catherine
This soup looks absolutely beautiful! I love the idea of coconut and pumpkin together…so creamy and comforting!
Gloria Duggan
This sounds like the perfect lunch for a fall day. I happen to love pumpkin everything. Using coconut milk would be an interesting pairing for sure.
Adriana Martin (@ABRecipes)
Nice combination of pumpkin and coconut for a creamy soup. Alwasy a pairing with a crusty bun is the best way to enjoy a warm soup.
Marlynn Jayme Schotland
What a wonderful soothing soup for cold nights! I’m dairy-free, so I make a lot of coconut milk-based soups and will definitely have to try this one!
Noel Lizotte
This soup sounds perfect! It’s cold and rainy here today. I think I’ve got all the ingredients in the cupboard. Guess what we’re having for lunch>! I use Rhodes rolls all the time. They’re delicious!
Calleigh
The first thing that caught my attention is how pretty are those dinner rolls hahaha… this is indeed perfect pairing for that pumpkin coconut soup. I need to find that dinner roll in the market later.. yum!

This soup seems to have everything going for it. Looks, healthy, and taste; definitely a winner in my book!

You really can’t beat frozen dough when you’re in a pinch – or even if you’re not. I used Rhodes bread dough for years. I’ve got a special story that goes along with that. Anyway, it’s always handy to have on hand, besides it’s delicious!!
