Introduction

I created this soup after having enjoying a "Thai Sweet Potato Soup" at a vegan restaurant. I thought, "Hey why not give it a bit of a smokey mexican inspired twist." I always use frozen veggies over can and no-salt-added stock and canned tomatoes to cut way back on the sodium. You could garnish with cheddar or tex-mex cheese, and/or sour cream and sliced green onions - but it's "creamy" and flavourful enough as is.
