Turkey & Sweet Potato Soup

October25

We love this soup.  I was super hesitant to put in the nut butter.  It tasted great without it and I am a whimp when it comes to things out of my comfort zone.  I am learning that much of this comes from my childhood of meat and potatoes  and I have decided that I will not let that stop me anymore.  Mind over matter.  So I did it, I added the nut butter and it made the dish 10 times better.  Don’t let your fear of weird keep you from trying this soup.  It is fantastic!!!

    Gretchen,
    I remembered eating the stew at your house before I ever tried this and it inspired me to be brave and add the nut butter.
