Sweet Potato Soup with Ginger, Cinnamon, and Turmeric

Sweet Potato Soup with Ginger, Cinnamon, and Turmeric

This savory soup would make a lovely appetizer to a romantic Valentine’s Day dinner or a stand-alone lunch anytime.  Sweet potatoes are a significant source of vitamins A, C, B6, Betaine, fiber, potassium, and manganese.  The ginger, turmeric, and cinnamon top off the meal with bold flavors and detoxifying micronutrients.  For a creamy texture add some coconut milk – a great source of calcium.  Take a long slow inhale to really get your taste buds salivating over this rich concoction and enjoy!
