Ingredients
Instructions
-
Place the sweet potato in a small saucepan with the water, cover, and bring to a quick boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer until tender
-
Transfer the sweet potato and some cooking water to a blender. Add all the remaining ingredients except the tomatoes and salmon or chicken (if using). Blend to a smooth puree, venting the hot air periodically for safety. Pour the puree back into the saucepan, add the tomatoes and the salmon or chicken, and simmer for another minute or two.
-
Taste and adjust the seasonings to “own it.”
Note
From page 118, Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook:
"Sweet potato is the star again in this soup, but this time the flavors are zesty and perhaps a little bit naughty instead of sweet and mild like a good little child in the Cream of Sweet Stuff Soup. If you don’t have any cooked meat handy, it is not essential so just leave it out. You can always add 2 tsp Just Gelatin during blending process to further up protein content."
SERVING IDEA: Garnish with parsley flakes and a sprinkling of grated pecorino cheese.
NOTE: If you don’t have any cooked meat or salmon handy, just leave it out. You can always add 2 teaspoons Just Gelatin during the blending to up the protein content.
