SWEET POTATO SOUP

 

This is another one of our favorites!  

Sweet Potato Soup

• 2 sweet potatoes peeled and cut into small cubes
• 2 stalk celery cut into small chunks
• 2 medium carrots cut into small pieces
• 3 cloves fresh garlic diced
• 1 large sweet onion cut into small pieces
• Olive oil
• 6 cups of water flavored with “Better than Broth” vegetable flavor (can use chicken stock instead of water if you prefer)
• Bragg’s liquid amino acid
• Garlic powder
• Sea Salt
• Pepper

1. 2 Tbsp olive oil into a large sauce pan
2. Saute garlic and onions together
3. Add in water
4. 1-2 tbsp of better than broth (if you used chicken stock you may not need to add any) 
5. 1-2 tbsp of Bragg’s amino acid
6. Add all vegetables
7. Flavor with salt, pepper and garlic powder to achieve desired flavor
8. Bring to a boil and simmer until all vegetables are soft
9. Allow to cool a little and then put everything in a blender and puree (if it is too hot the pressure will cause the lid to pop of the blender while blending.  You can also use an immersion blender if you have one. 

You can add cubes of grilled chicken, rice, avocado or additional vegetables after you puree.
