Worked out better than I expected! I also added mushrooms with the pumpkin and then added cooked chicken 10 min before the end. I used half the quantity of chicken stock and made up the difference with boiled water to reduce the salt content. I accidentally left out the cheese which ended up perfect because I prefer it that way for my 8 month old. I pureed a portion for my baby who is not a good eater at all and he devoured it! Husband also liked it - we just added cheese on top.
