I give it four stars because I was not crazy about it but my boyfriend loved it. If you don't LOVE the taste of sweet potatoes don't make this soup.

This recipe was very easy and very good. I used vegetabke broth instead of chicken and soymilk instead of heavy cream, and it turned out really well. I am going to try this recipe while substituting other vegetables for the sweet potatoes.

This was great. I had my wisdom teeth removed and was going crazy with nothing to eat. I had a sweet potato so I made a smaller batch of this. Added some ginger and cloves in addition to the nutmeg. Yum. Still have a few more servings left!

My husband liked this soup, but I hated it. If you are just crazy over sweet potatoes than this soup would probably taste good to you. I on the other hand like them but dont love them enough to enjoy this recipe. I thought the recipe needed alot more sugar, and I didnt really like the flavor of cayenne w/ the sweetness of the potato and sugar. Wont be making this again.

My whole family loves this. Easy to make also. I peel, cut in chunks, and steam the sweet potatoes for about 12 minutes. Saves on baking time and heating oven. Also omitted the cream for lower calorie and outcome was delightful! Great recipe!

I used 2 large sweet potatoes and microwaved them for 15 minutes to cut down on time, a 32 oz. box of chicken broth, and added 1/4 tsp. of ground ginger. I also added 1/4 cup of creamy peanut butter. No cream needed! Total cooking time was less than 30 minutes. Delicious!! Will make again soon!

I thought that this recipe was easy and good. I did however tweek it a little with things that I like. I roasted a head of garlic with the potatoes and sauted some onions, and blended that with the sweet potatoes. I did leave out the cream/milk I thought it was creamy enough. I also took the advice from other and added red pepper flakes instead, and very little brown suger. Its a great easy recipe that you can add your own flare to!!!!

This soup is AWESOME and was so creamy! I just boiled the sweet potatoes in the chicken broth (I used much less than recipe called for... bout 36oz), with some chopped onion and then used an emulsifier while adding the other ingredients. Plus, used smart balance 1% milk instead of cream and it worked great and is much healthier! I'm definitely making this again and I highly recommend it to anyone who likes sweet potatoes! :-D

My husband was going to open a can of soup because he did not think he would like this. I made him have a taste with a slice of homemade beer bread from this site, he put the can away and got himself a bowl. Very yummy. I used half and half instead of cream and I could not find my nutmeg so I used ginger, oh, and i only used 4 cups of chicken broth instead of 3 cans. thank you for a great recipe!

Very easy to make. A lot of flavor. I used my own chicken stock which gave it more flavor. Next time I will skip the one or the other peppers. You don't need both. I like it spicey but others may not.

This was really great, and it was exactly what I had been craving. Here are my adjustments: I used skim milk instead of cream (what I had on hand, & wanted to keep fat down), crushed red pepper instead of cayenne (what I had on hand), and added a sprinkle of dried ground ginger. It had just the right amount of bite to tease the palate but certainly would not be classified as spicy. Would definitely make this again.

This soup was very easy to make, and very good though I did have to substitute 1 can of vegetable broth as I only had two chicken broths in the pantry.I feel this made no difference to the taste; I also warmed the broth before blending it in the food processor with the sweet potatoes. I brought the recipe to work the next day to share with co-workers.

I liked this soup, it had a nice flavor and could be served with something more substantial - I don't know what though... My family loves sweet potatoes, but were NOT fans of this soup and would rate it much lower.
