Turkey & Sweet Potato Soup
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.
