We love the Sweet Potato and Leek Soup, which is great to make for dinner and then reheat the next day for lunch.
Quick tip: if you don't have a traditional protein in your soup, make it a meal by adding 2 crackers (such as Wasa or Le Pain des Fleurs) topped with Kite Hill Cheese or avocado AND/OR top the soup with 2 tbsp. hemp seeds, pumpkin seeds, or roasted chickpeas.
Serves 4.
1. In a large pot, heat 2 tbsp. olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add 1 chopped onion, 3 chopped leeks, and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft (about 7 minutes). Add 3 cloves minced garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for about 30 seconds.
2. Add 6 cups of vegetable broth, 4 chopped and peeled sweet potatoes, 1 tsp. ground ginger, pinch ground nutmeg, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are soft, about 10 minutes.
3. Transfer the soup to a blender or food processor. Add 1 cup canned coconut milk. Process until smooth. Store unoffered portions in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
