Rosemary Infused Sweet Potato Soup
Sweet potatoes are filling, flavorful, and healthy–a triple threat–and I prefer them to regular potatoes any day of the week. In order to capture the earthy richness exemplary of the autumn season, I added lots of chopped sweet onion and an abundance of fresh rosemary. This creamy, savory soup with little rosemary flecks will surely delight your senses.
