Sweet Potato Spring Soup
My mom likes to leave a few chunks out and add back in her bowl to the puree. Mr P likes the consistency to be like applesauce and so do the kids. I prefer a more soupy soup, so I add a lot of liquid to mine. Either way, make it to your own desire.
We love this soup, I hope you will too. Perfectly light and healthy for spring/summer time. Enjoy!
Oh yum, this looks delicious. It’s just the kind of food I also love – good for the whole family and not too fussy! Thank you for sharing the recipe x
Thanks hunny. I know I don’t have enough hours in the day to cook and bake things that take hours to prep and then finish. I need fast, yummy, easy, and fun meals.
Mmm looks delicious! Love a thick soup.
Nothing like a homemade soup! Unfortunately I think there is zero chance of my little fussy eaters going for it! I always buy fresh soups for myself for work though as I try and steer clear of sandwiches so I should really make my own! This one looks great so thanks for sharing it! X #TastyTuesdays
this looks lush, thank you for sharing. definitely going to try making it this spring! x
Sounds yummy, I love soup, but I quite like it ‘lumpy’ rather than completely puréed, it’s funny how we all like it a different way isn’t it? I’d do what your mum does 🙂 #TastyTuesdays
This looks delicious and I love sweet potato soup-I like to add butternut squash too and a dollop of creme fraiche to finish. I like this particular soup smooth! Stunning food photography by the way! Thanks for linking up to #tastytuesdays
This looks really tasty and healthy to boot, a great lunch and I love your photographs!
Ya, I actually like it both ways depends on the weather and how I am feeling. Sometimes I keep it all lumpy and only pulse a little bit for the texture.
Thanks I am trying to get better. I have some many recipes to share but never did it before because all my photos were bad. Thanks for hosting.
Thanks Sarah. I really struggled at first on food pictures so I didn’t share any recipes at first. I am getting better.
Looks fab lovely, definitely my kind of soup! I’m a huge fan of quick & easy too 😉 #TastyTuesdays
I love sweet potatoes- so versatile and I’ll be trying this yummy soup. I never thought of adding parsnips so will definitely give it a go. Your photos are great too.
Thanks Tory, I am working hard to take a lot better photos. This is my favorite soup but it’s great to throw almost anything in or out of it. lol
Oh yummy, I love soup and sweet potato is one of my favourites. This one looks delicious!

Thanks Sophie. I love it as you can really add anything to it or if you are missing an ingredient substitute.
