Heat 4 tablespoons butter over medium-low heat in a pot and cook onion until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add pumpkin and potatoes and stir to coat with butter. Add broth and milk. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, covered, until potatoes soften, 10 to 15 minutes.
Strain soup through a fine-mesh sieve. Season with salt, nutmeg, and sugar. Stir in lemon juice. Return to the pot and bring to a boil. Add cream and heat through but do not boil.
Meanwhile, heat remaining butter in a skillet and toast bread cubes in the hot butter until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve croutons with the soup.

MICROWAVE POTATO SOUP

Lately, Mom's been doing quite a bit of my cooking thanks to being sick, dizzy, and nauseated. Other than canned chicken noodle, grilled cheese, and other "easy on the tummy" foods, potato soup is one of those things I'm enjoying because it's not spicy. This microwave recipe is relatively fast and pretty good. It's very basic and is a great "starter" recipe to be altered in any way.
