Creamy Paleo Ham and Sweet Potato Soup

  • Number of Servings: 7
Ingredients
0.50 tsp Pepper, black 0.50 cup, chopped Onions, raw 0.25 cup Tapioca Flour (Bob's Red Mill) 2 cup Almond Milk (homemade) 2 cup Pacific Foods Organic Turkey Bone Broth 2 cup, cubes Sweet potato 28 oz Uncured Ham 2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast Powder (NOW Foods) 2 tsp Bacon grease
Directions
1. Combine onion, celery, ham, sweet potatoes, chicken stock, water, salt & pepper in a large pot. (Remember to reduce the amount of salt if you are using chicken stock/broth that is already salted.)

2. Bring to a boil and turn down heat to low or medium/low to keep soup at a low simmer. Cook until the sweet potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

3. Meanwhile, whisk together the arrowroot and part of the almond milk (about 1/2 a cup) in a medium saucepan until smooth. Add the rest of the almond milk and butter and bring to a boil. Boil 1 minute to thicken.

4. Add the thickened milk mixture to the soup (after the sweet potatoes are tender) and stir until well incorporated.

    I tend to caramelize the onions and celery with bacon grease before adding in the broth and other ingredients. - 4/18/18
