Instructions:

  1. In a large saucepan, melt the margarine and butter over medium heat until sizzling. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté for 7 to 10 minutes, or until they turn lightly browned and fragrant.

  6. Pour the blended mixture back into the saucepan. Reheat gently over low heat until warmed through and ready to serve.

  7. Ladle the Pumpkin Pecan Bisque into serving bowls, garnish with a sprinkle of additional pecan pieces or a drizzle of cream if desired, and enjoy the comforting warmth and delicious flavors of this autumn delight!
