    Sweet Potato Soup with Toasted Pecans

    Jump to Recipe Pin

    This rich Sweet Potato Soup with Toasted Pecans is Thanksgiving in a bowl! It is an easy weeknight meal.

    Sweet Potato Soup with Toasted Pecans in a bowl.

    Here, I have for you comfort food in a bowl. This Sweet Potato Soup with Toasted Pecans is a warm blanket on a cold night; a warm fuzzy when you least expect it; a kitten curling up beside you.

    Okay, yes it is September, and I have made a soup recipe. (I actually have been waiting to post this recipe since August.)

    This is a recipe reminiscent of Thanksgiving. I am weird, alright. Yes, I make and eat soup in the summer, just like I wear black all year round.

    I live in Arizona and get teased about that. Do I give a @$*#? Absolutely not. When I am craving soup, no one can stop me.

    Sweet Potato Soup with Toasted Pecans in spoon.

    This soup is really pretty simple and easy to make. You can peel and chop, right? Check.

    You can cook onions until translucent right? Check. You can cook sweet potato, apple, and veggie broth while a timer times the whole cooking process right? Check.

    Last, but not least, you can blend ingredients in a blender or food processor, right? Check.

    Oops, I almost forgot, you can toast pecans, right? Not sure? No worries, it is one of the easiest steps in this recipe.

    There you have it - you just made warm fuzzy - kitten cuddling - warm blanket - comfort food soup! It is satisfying to know that you can make such a warm embracing meal, isn't it?

    Even though we are still in the hotter part of the year - you will love this soup. Anytime. I swear.

    Other recipes to try are my Candied Pumpkin Spice Pecans recipe or my No Bake Truffles made with pecans.
