So a friend sent me a great recipe for soup yesterday (http://t.co/UUd9ag0E).  I wanted to reciprocate, but I don’t have a link to the recipe anywhere online.  So I thought I would post it here…

Ingredients:

2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 medium onions – finely chopped
2 cloves garlic – finely chopped
3 medium sweet potatoes – peeled and sliced
1 jalapeno pepper – seeded and chopped
1 tsp chipotle – optional
4-5 cups chicken or vegetable stock – I always do 5 b/c it is very thick otherwise.
salt
1/4 cup lime juice
sour cream
Directions:
1.  Heat butter in a large pot.  Add onions and soften over medium heat.  Add garlic, sweet potatoes, jalapeno pepper, and chipotle – stir to coat with the buttery onions.
2.  Add chicken stock and a dash of salt.  Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer partially covered until veggies are tender – about 20 minutes.  Puree the mixture.
3.  Reheat gently, add lime juice and season to taste.  Soup will thicken as it rests – so you may need to adjust amount of stock.
4.  Serve hot with a swirl of sour cream in each bowl.

Thanks to my friend Andrea who sent it to me in the first place!
