Sweet Potato Soup

Filed Under: soup, vegetable Tagged With: dinner, onion, potato, sweet potato

This creamy sweet potato soup, is loaded with veggies and makes a hearty meal for the cooler weather.

A quick scan of the weather channels will tell you that although its Spring, it’s pretty cold outside! Even here in Florida the weather has been chilly, so I took what is probably my last opportunity until fall and made soup. This creamy blend of sweet and russet potatoes, carrots and onion was a huge success = toddler approved.

Anytime I hear “um” followed by a smile I know I’ve found a winning recipe, she ate a whole bowl and still asked for more. If the temperatures outside have you wanting some soup or you’re looking for a good way to get your kids to eat their veggies I highly recommend this soup. Stay warm and cozy, I hope you’ll enjoy this recipe!

Author Emily

Yield 6 -8 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 sweet potato, large
  • 1 russet potato, large
  • 1 c carrots, diced
  • 1/2 large onion, diced
  • 32 oz. vegetable stock
  • 2 Tbs butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375º and line a baking pan with foil.
  2. Slice the potatoes into wedges and drizzle them with olive oil and sprinkle on the salt and pepper, roast for 35-40 minutes.
  3. In a 3 quart soup pan melt the butter and saute the onion and carrots for 10 minutes.
  4. Add the vegetable stock to the soup pot and bring to a boil, simmer until the potatoes finish roasting. Remove the potatoes from the oven and cool to the touch.
  5. Remove the skins and add to the pot, cook the soup an additional 5 minutes.
  6. Using an immersion blender purée the soup to desired consistency, I like mine smooth but chunky is fine.
  7. Serve warm.
