Sweet Potato Soup Recipe

I'm finally giving away the secret!  I make this soup 3-4 times per year (usually for our team carbo-loading dinner parties) and the leftovers (if any) never make it past the next day.  Enjoy a small bowl as an appetizer or ladle a large bowl and accompany it with a salad for a filling meal.

Note #1: "Sweet potatoes" and "yams" are not the same.  If you order sweet potato fries at a restaurant, you are eating yams.  True sweet potatoes are the yellow variety (they look similar to russet potatoes, but are longer and much more flavorful).

Note #2: The nutrition facts do not include any of the garnish - sour cream will obviously up the Calories.  I also recommend toasting a few slices of sourdough baggette to dip in the soup.

Note #3: Click on the image below - then right click and "save as" to download the recipe.

Enjoy!
