This soup recipe just came out of my head while I was looking in my freezer at all the bags of cooked sweet potatoes I had stored there. I as so pleased with it that I had to share. :) I love toasting a piece of nutty oat bread and breaking it up and putting it in my soup for a little kick of texture and flavor.
