HARVEST SOUP
Easy, nutritious, delicious
I think Phoebe Calebow, Molly Somerville’s big sister, would love serving this to Dan and the kids. Makes about 7 cups
- 4-5 medium to small sweet potatoes
- 2 cans (14 oz) broth (Since the boys aren’t home, I use College Inn Light Chicken broth)
- 2 sticks cinnamon
- 1/2 – 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1/3 C chunky peanut butter
- (additional salt, pepper, and cinnamon optional)
Peel and dice sweet potatoes. Combine in saucepan with chicken broth, cinnamon sticks, and thyme. Cook until sweet potatoes are very soft, about half an hour. Discard cinnamon sticks. Pour mixture into food processor in batches and process with peanut butter. If soup is too thick, dilute with additional chicken broth. Makes about 7 cups. Serve with salad for a light springtime dinner. (Even the Calebow kids like this one!)
