Spicy Sweet Potato Red Pepper Soup image

This soup is so complex, looks so pretty served and is so simple to make. Who would think it's SO healthy! I made it at home after having it several times at a local fine dining restaurant. I took a stab at making it without a recipe and it turned out great!
