    Amazing! Perfect for the fall. Not heavy but filling. Beware that this recipe will only serve 2-3 servings depending on serving size. I double the batch everytime I make it.

    Initially, I agreed with some of the other reviewers that I expected it to be sweeter. I did not alter the recipe at all and I really enjoyed it. It ended up being plenty sweet enough. It's also very easy to make. I'll definitely make it again.

    This Soup is one of the most delicious ones I've ever had! Super easy to make too. I made mine without ginger, just because of my own preference, and it taste just amazing. Would make a great thanksgiving dish :

    I had leftover roasted sweet potatoes and onions...I added extra chicken broth and used my leftovers...so tasty and healthy...the onions added some flavor too. I love Food Network!

    I just made this recipe and it came out really good. I added the following to help the recipe out: 1 tablespoon brown sugar (in addition to what's called for, I used 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 clove, and fresh ginger instead of powdered.

    With these changes, it came out very good and super tasty. Enjoy :

    My fiance and I tried something similar to this last week at an event and it was garnished with sour creme in the middle of each cup. Their version was pretty sweet so the sour creme was a nice balance. I am going to try this recipe, but based on the other reviews, I think I'll substitue the milk with some vanilla soy milk.

    I used jarred baby food. Already smooth and no blending needed. Just as healthy for you. Even easier to make! I think it is sweet enough. It is still soup people not an actual sweet potato with all the topping or sweet potato pie! Delish.

    I found the recipe very simple and easy to follow. I had to make a few substitutions. I didn't have any ready made chicken stock, so I used chicken boullion cubes dissolved in water instead. I also added a smidge more brown sugar and used 2% milk. I liked the overall taste of the soup, however, next time I will leave more chunks of the sweet potato. Overall, very good and fast recipe!!

    A little bland. I was expecting it to be a little sweeter, too (even though I didn't think I would even after reading the other reviews. Not sure if that's because I used fresh ginger instead of ground. I used vegetable broth and 1/2 cup skim + 1/2 cup half and half. A few more tablespoons of brown sugar, plus some vanilla and extra cinnamon helped.

    The roux took at least 30 minutes, not to mention having to cook the sweet potatoes ahead. I think using leftover Thanksgiving sweet potatoes (with marshmallows as others reported would have made this a lot easier!
