YUM! although this recipe sounded a little odd, it was absolutely delicious. I added about a tsp of brown sugar and a whole tsp of cinnamon, as well as a little extra pepper and nutmeg to boost the sweet potato's flavor. cherry tomatoes work just as well as one large tomato, just make sure to use a heaping handful. I also substituted low sodium organic vegetable broth instead of chicken broth to make this vegan friendly. i'm going to make it again for Thanksgiving!

It was very good and filling! I served it over sticky rice. Dearest hubby doesn't like exotic stuff like raisins in anything but cereal so I had it all to myself (the rest is in the freezer for future lunches). I was missing spinach; substituted one large tomato for a large handful of cherry tomatoes; used my own chicken stock and didn't use any water; and I also used almost a tsp of cinnamon and pepper flakes. I agree that nuts could be good in it too. Thanks for the recipe!

My husband liked this. I liked it too, but for me, it was not one of those soups that you can keep in the fridge for long. The potatoes become too mushy, and the raisins plump up too much.

Even better with cashews and served on brown rice.

Very good, especially considering how nutritious it is! I didn't have red pepper, so I used paprika - as I made it, I thought it could use a little more umphf. Perhaps the pepper would have helped; I may experiment with other spices in the future.

I substituted "no chicken" broth for campbell's as well. It turned out great. So easy! Very flavorful too, I didn't add any salt or extra seasonings.

This recipe is DELICIOUS. I used 2 cups of boxed "non-chicken" chicken broth instead of the Campbell's condensed, but other than that, I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great.

Very Good - It was very different than what we were used to but the fresh ingredients and unusual spice combo made it a fun new dinner for the family.

This recipe turned out really well. After adding the 10 oz. of broth and the 1/2 cup of water, there wasn't enough liquid to cover the potatoes while simmering. I added half a carton of chicken broth, along with some extra cinnamon and red pepper flake. My boyfriend and I liked it, but we agreed that it was a little bland. Next time, I'll add salt, pepper, and more garlic. The sweet potatoes were perfectly cooked, tender without being squishy. Yum!
