Garnish this soup with any toppings that you’d like! We peeled a few carrots to make ribbon shapes with a vegetable peeler and then used them as a garnish! Want to add a crunch on top? Garnish your soup with slivered almonds or pumpkin seeds.
Orange carrots are delicious but feel free to use purple carrots or yellow carrots, if desired. You can usually find these in a large bag in the produce aisles of Whole Foods Market and other health food stores.
You can easily serve this soup with a side of roasted organic chicken breasts. Just place the chicken breasts in a deep baking dish and drizzle with olive oil, sea salt and pepper. Then, roast at 350 degrees F for 25 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink inside. Slice and serve on the side with your sweet potato soup.
