    Curried Sweet Potato Soup Quick and Flavorful Meal

    March 31, 2015 Filed Under: Soups and Stews

    Curried Sweet Potato Soup delicious vegan (or vegetarian) soup that is quick and easy to make. 

    Curried Sweet Potato Soup is a flavorful and easy vegan  soup that cooks in under 30 minutes!

    While flipping through the original May I Have a Copy of That Recipe cookbook that was the precursor to this website, I came across a recipe for Curried Sweet Potato Soup that I knew wasn't on the blog yet. Mostly because I know Ma'am never made. She put it in as a joke for a friend that does not care for coconut.

    I also knew I had two yams in the cupboard which are almost the same thing as sweet potatoes, at least as far as this recipe is concerned.

    I lightened up the original recipe with some coconut milk instead of half and half and a tweak here and there to match the ingredients I had on hand and I ended up with an awesome vegan meal.

     

    Serve with your favorite curry type toppings like toasted coconut, chopped peanuts, raisins (cranberries in this photo) or maybe some chutney.
