Soup and More from Thanksgiving Leftovers

SWEET POTATO SOUP.  If your sweet potato dish is topped with those cute little marshmallows, scrape them off and give to your cute little children (or not). Using a blender or food processor, thin the potatoes with water or vegetable stock, to a consistency you like.

Now, because of the sugar and spices and butter you probably had in the original casserole, at this point your soup will taste sweet to some degree.  I’d like to see you add other flavors, to balance the sweetness, so the finished soup is not like eating orange maple syrup.
