Harvest Sweet Potato Soup image

I always double this recipe whenever I prepare it, since we love leftovers. This is the easiest soup I've ever made. Even young children can really dig in, since this thick nutritious mixture clings to spoons. We prefer it warm, but it can also be served chilled. -Gayle Becker, Mount Clemens, Michigan
