This recipe has been provided by one of our members Julie, who is a brilliant cook! This soup tastes just like ones that a certain well known soup brand make, but with a bit of an extra kick. A lovely sweet flavour comes through from the sweet potato, which also helps to thicken it. Soups are a great way to get some extra veg in to your diet, you can batch cook them, and split them into portions ready for lunches, when you are short on time.
