    Servings and Ingredients

    Ingredients
    Serves 8
    QuantityIngredientAdd
    1 tbsp. Hy-Vee canola oil
    1 c. chopped onions
    ¼ tsp. Hy-Vee ground cinnamon
    ¼ tsp. ground nutmeg, plus additional for topping
    4 ¾ c. cubed peeled sweet potatoes (about 1-1/2 pounds)
    3 c. chopped carrots (about 1 pound)
    1 (32 oz) carton Hy-Vee 33%-less-sodium chicken broth
    2 ½ c. water
    ¼ c. Hy-Vee skim milk
    ½ tsp. Hy-Vee salt
    ¼ tsp. Hy-Vee freshly ground black pepper
    ⅓ c. Hy-Vee plain Greek yogurt, divided

    Directions

    1. In a large Dutch oven, heat canola oil over medium heat. Add onions to pan; cook 4 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in cinnamon and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add sweet potatoes, carrots, broth and water; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 35 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
    2. Place half of soup mixture in a blender. Remove center piece of blender lid (to allow steam to escape); secure blender lid on blender. Place a clean towel over opening in blender lid (to avoid splatters). Blend until smooth. Pour into a large bowl. Repeat with remaining soup mixture. Stir in skim milk, salt and pepper. Top each serving with about 2 teaspoons plain Greek yogurt. Sprinkle with nutmeg, if desired.
