Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 40 minutes
Servings 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 6 cups sweet potato peeled and cubed
  • 4 cups leeks cleaned and sliced
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil or ghee
  • 1 medium onion I used white
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 6 cups broth chicken or vegetable
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 cups coconut milk
  • Sea salt & Pepper

Instructions

  • In a large pot heat avocado oil or ghee over medium/high heat until hot. Add in onion and garlic, stirring around so they don’t burn, 3-4 minutes.
  • Add in leeks and sweet potato, combine all ingredients together, add in garlic powder, sea salt and pepper. Let cook for 4-5 minutes until leeks begin to soften and sweet potatoes turn bright orange.
  • Add broth and coconut milk, this should cover your vegetables, if it doesn’t add more broth. Let everything come to a low boil, once boiling, cover, lower heat to simmer and let simmer for 30-40 minutes.
  • Once everything has been simmering for 30-40 minutes, make sure sweet potatoes are super soft. You can then transfer to a blender in batches and blend to puree or you can use an immersion blender to blend, serve and enjoy!
