Spicy Sweet Potato Soup | THM: E

Save for later!

Spicy Sweet Potato Soup with a slice of sprouted bread is my new favorite Trim Healthy Mama-friendly E lunch!

The heat from the spices in this Indian-flavored soup work perfectly with the sweet potatoes, and the creamy addition of 0% Greek yogurt balances out the flavors while adding a great source of protein to your meal.

This soup will warm you from the inside out, and yet the heat level is completely adjustable to each person in your family! The more yogurt you swirl in, the milder the flavor and higher the protein content.

This Spicy Sweet Potato Soup keeps well in the fridge for days (so you can have easy E lunches all week long), and it freezes well, too.

Spicy Sweet Potato Soup, like many E meals, is a frugal choice. No special ingredients are needed:

  • coconut oil
  • onion
  • garlic
  • sweet potatoes
  • red bell pepper
  • curry powder
  • paprika
  • ground ginger
  • mineral salt and pepper to taste
  • chicken broth
  • 0% fat Greek yogurt

If you have very small children, or really don’t care much for heat yourself, feel free to decrease the amount of curry powder in the recipe to 1 or 1 1/2 tablespoons instead.

Yield: 6 servings

  1. I made this tonight- my husband has recently discovered his love of sweet potatoes. We absolutely loved it!! Even my 9 & 5 year old boys cleaned their bowls!! Only disappointing part was that after seconds, there’s not a whole lot leftover!! Great excise to make again asap!! 😉 Thank you for this yummy creation!!

  2. Can you tell me about how much these 3 sweet potatoes might weigh? There is just no consistency in the size of sweet potatoes in my grocery store!

  3. I make this Whole30 compliant by swapping the yogurt for Coconut cream. It tastes so good! My husband is a chef and he likes it this way, too!
