Easy Sweet Potato Soup

easy gluten free sweet potato soup
 
It's that time of year when I crave a cozy cup of soup at the end of the day; an easy, filling,
cozy cup of soup.

The other night, I happened to have a bunch of onions and sweet potatoes in the pantry.
Et voilà! Sweet potato soup.

Method: 1) peel (if you like; I did) and roughly chop 5 or 6 sweet potatoes, and 2 yellow/white onions; 2) toss them in your soup pot with a bit of olive oil, on high heat; 3) cover; 4) stir occasionally, until the potatoes and onions get soft and start to brown; 5) turn the heat down to medium/low and stir in 1 chopped red chili pepper (include the seeds if you want it a bit hotter) and 1 chopped clove of garlic; 6) let it cook for a few minutes, then add 4 cups of chicken broth and bring it back to a boil; 7) cover it and let it boil for about 5 more minutes; 8) turn the heat off and use a hand blender/food processor to blend it up; 9) add more chicken broth if you'd like it a bit thinner; 10) salt to taste; 11) serve.

PS: Up until now, I have been taking all these photos with my iPhone. But, my wonderful husband just got me a brand new—and seriously awesome—proper camera to use. Yay for real cameras!
