Simple Sweet Potato Soup

This delicious soup has only 6 ingredients. It was given to me by my boyfriend’s mom who adapted it from another recipe. It can be as thick or thin as you like, and I like it quite thick. To dress it up when serving, drizzle some cream on top and float a lime twist or slice of lime on top. Delicious hot or cold.

Original recipe makes 8 servings

Ingredients

6 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped

Puree potatoes and lime juice in a food processor, or with a hand blender until smooth. Return soup to saucepan and stir in milk or cream as desired; heat until warmed through.
