List of Ingredients




Nonstick cooking spray
1 onion, chopped
6 cups reduced sodium chicken stock or broth
1 29-ounce can yams or sweet potatoes, packed in syrup, rinsed, drained and diced
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 Granny Smith apple, sliced and cut into small slivers, for garnish



Recipe



Spray a Dutch oven with the cooking spray and heat over medium-high. Add onions and sauté for 5 minutes. Add stock, potatoes, nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice and salt and pepper. Raise heat to high, cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and puree with an immersion blender. * Reheat soup, covered, over low heat. Ladle into bowls, drizzle with a bit of whipping cream, if desired, and garnish with the apple slivers.

Makes 6 servings.

*Soup can be pureed in small batches in an electric blender. Use caution when pureeing hot liquids in a blender. Never fill the blender more than 1/3 full of a hot liquid.
