Bisque
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook a few minutes until fragrant and translucent. Add pumpkin, broth, and spices. Bring to a boil, turn down heat and simmer 10 minutes. Pull the pot off the heat and let cool slightly. Remove bay leaf. Transfer in batches to a blender or use an immersion blender to smooth it out. Transfer back to pot, and add half and half, maple syrup and cheese. Heat through for about 5 minutes. Serve with spider drizzle, chives, and Crispy Pinto Beans.
