Roslyn’s Sweet Potato Peanut Butter Soup This soup is filling, nutritious and is low in calories. It includes a number of spices that are excellent for digestion with antioxidant properties. You can experiment with different amounts or omit spices that you aren’t fond of. It also contains garlic and ginger which have many healthful qualities as well. If you aren’t as crazy about garlic as I am, try putting less. Start your meal with a bowl of this soup or use it as a snack when you need a little something to fill you up. This is a featured recipe in Roslyn's book, The A List: 9 Guiding Principles for Healthy Eating and Positive Living. 1 sweet potato cubed Boil the sweet potato till tender about 15 – 20 minutes. Drain. Mash potatoes, add the grated ginger and stir well. Put aside. In a large pot, heat the oil on medium high heat and fry the onions and garlic till softened. Add the curry, turmeric, pepper, cumin and coriander and stir for 1 minute. Add the chicken broth and crushed tomatoes and stir. Allow to boil. Add sweet potato and ginger mixture and peanut butter. Turn heat to low and allow to simmer for 20 minutes. Freeze leftovers in individual serving size containers for quick additions to your lunches or for snacks.

Because it combines a starch with beans it actually forms a complete protein. It can be served hot or cold. You can prepare a large amount ahead of time and then bring leftovers for your lunch the next day. It is also a great snack in between meals. It is highly nutritious, high in fibre, low in fat, low in calories and combines foods from 4 of the 6 main food groups including grain, vegetable, meat and healthy fat. The only things missing are the dairy and fruit. You can always top off the meal with some yogurt with fruit and presto you’ve covered all your food groups. It is also very easy and fast to prepare. You can experiment with different ingredients according to your tastes and also play with different spice combinations for a nice variety in flavours. Instead of beans you can use diced cooked leftover chicken or turkey without skin. You can even try it with canned tuna or salmon.

These recipes shouldn’t take you longer than 5 minutes to prepare and an hour to cook. I suggest making them in larger quantities so that you can freeze leftovers for quick lunches and dinners. The beauty of these recipes is that you can use the chicken in different ways. You can unfreeze leftovers and make a chicken salad or cut it up and mix it up with rice or add it to a soup or slice it up for a quick sandwich with mustard, lettuce and tomato on whole wheat bread.
