Sweet Potato Soup with Tomato and Lentil

Just an other soup recipe, I can’t help, all I wanna eat nowadays is soup. I think that one of the best ways to stay warm is to get a big bowl of hot soup. Great thing is that I can also prepare a large amount of these soups and eat it the next days. Anytime I would feel I need a little energy and something to warm me up, I just get a bowl of a soup. Yummy!

I have already talked about, how much I love roasting my veggies for a soup, I did that with the sweet potatoes now too. And here I have also mentioned what a great soup ingredient the red lentils are. This soup is the combination of these two now, and it is so creamy and tasty!

I used some cashew cream again, it makes this sweet potato soup just even creamier and richer. I can’t really imagine any better dish for these cold days than this recipe, it is truly amazing! And don’t forget to add a lots of chili and ginger, that will make the soup so heartwarming.
