Curried Carrot, Sweet Potato (Or Yam) & Ginger Soup image

my mom got this recipe from a friend at work and made it last night. tried it today and it was awesome. very nutrient rich and low in fat and calories. had the luck of acquiring part of a croissant with swiss cheese and caramelized onions to dip in it. not too shabby.
