This soup is given a holiday-accent by adding my secret ingredient: citrus zest! Just a pinch of orange or tangerine zest and the sweet potato soup tastes extra cozy and special. You can even add spiced accents like pepper, cayenne and or cinnamon.
Creamy Baked Sweet Potato Soup
vegan, serves 2
Ingredients:
- 1 large sweet potato (1 3/4 cups mashed after baked)
- 1 cup soy or almond milk, plain flavored (warmed or room temperature)

- black pepper, cinnamon and/or cayenne to taste
Directions:
1. Bake your sweet potato in the oven – about 40 minutes at 400 degrees.
