PALEO SWEET POTATO AND LEEK SOUP

Sweet potato and leeks! What a beautiful combination!

I just love root vegetable soup on a cold winter day!

Not only is this soup delicious but its dairy free, gluten free, and egg free.


INGREDIENTS:

3 Sweet Potatoes
1 Leek
2 Cloves Garlic
6 slices bacon
3 cups vegetable broth
200ml coconut milk
1 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast Flakes
Sea Salt
1tsp celery salt
1 tsp cumin
Pepper

INSTRUCTIONS:

Peel and chop the sweet potatoes

In a sauce pan, fry 6 slices of bacon

Remove the cooked bacon and leave the bacon grease in the sauce pan

Chop the leek, whites and light greens only and add to the saucepan

Add the garlic cloves and fry in the bacon grease until tender

Add sea salt, cumin and celery salt

Add 3 cups of vegetable broth ( I save my own veggie water and freeze it )

Add 200ml or 1/2 can coconut milk and nutritional yeast

Bring to a boil

Add the sweet potato

Continue to simmer for 30 minutes

Remove from heat and allow to cool

Add to food processor or blender and puree

Garnish with the crumbled bacon
