Ingredients
for the soup
- 2 Tbsp butter (or substitute olive oil)
- 1.7 lbs sweet potatoes (or about 2 medium-large sweet potatoes), chopped
- 1 medium yellow onion, roughly diced
- 4 cups chicken stock (32 ounces), or substitute vegetable stock
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp ground coriander
- 1/4 tsp ground cumin
for the lime yogurt drizzle
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- zest of 1 lime
- juice of 1/2 lime
- Small pinch salt
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a large stockpot, and simmer the chopped sweet potatoes and onions for about 5 minutes over medium heat.
- Add the stock, salt, and spices, and simmer for about 20 minutes or until the vegetables are completely tender.
- Allow the soup to cool slightly, and blend until smooth using an immersion blender, or regular blender. Blend in batches if needed.
- Return the soup to the stockpot and heat until hot, adjusting the seasoning if necessary.
- To make the sauce, whisk together all of the ingredients until smooth, adding just enough water to make it pourable. Serve drizzled over the finished soup.
Notes
- A little goes a long way with sweet potatoes, and I like to ladle this into small bowls, or mugs, for the perfect serving size.
- This soup is a healthy, low calorie choice. Sweet potatoes have a lower GI and more fiber than regular potatoes, along with plenty of beta carotene.
- The soup will freeze well, just don't add the yogurt drizzle until you're ready to enjoy.
