Soups and Stews

Cream of Sweet Potato Soup

A delicious twist on winter squash soup. Cinnamon and ginger can also be added instead of the cloves and nutmeg for a different spicy taste. A dollop of sour cream makes a nice garnish here.


  • 3 sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • salt to taste
  • 1 1/2 cups light cream, half-and-half, or milk

Combine the sweet potatoes and broth in a crockpot and cook on high for 2-3 hours. Puree in a blender and return to the crockpot. Add the remaining ingredients and cook on high for 1-2 hours.
