Sweet potatoes and squash are great sources of vitamins A, C, and B and are rich in fiber. The sweet potato has become extremely versatile in cooking and baking, from breakfast to dinner and even dessert.
This colorful soup requires peeling and cubing the vegetables before cooking. But once that is done, it doesn’t get any easier!
Add vegetables to chicken or vegetable broth and simmer until fork tender. Puree with a handheld blender and serve. Top with croutons or parsley for color.

This heart-healthy soup recipe is from my daughter. It is a flavorful, light soup that makes an excellent addition to any meal. You can serve it as a side dish or your main meal.
