Maple-Chipotle Sweet-Potato Bisque

This time of year, pumpkins, squash, and sweet potatoescan be found everywhere. This tasty recipe combines my favorite orange vegetable, sweet potatoes, with spicy chipotle peppers and sweet maple syrup. This soup is perfect to sip while curled up next to a warm fire. You can also serve it at a holiday get-together or make it in bulk and freeze it. Enjoy!

The following recipe comes from Carolyn Scott-Hamilton of HealthyVoyager.com.

Maple-Chipotle Sweet-Potato Bisque

1/4 cup softened vegan butter
Salt and pepper, to taste

• Boil the sweet potatoes until tender, then place in a large bowl.
