Changing Leaves Changing Produce

Hey Guys!
  I'm back with another Fall dish perfect for the cozy season. It is a tasty Loaded Sweet Potatoe Soup with Turkey Meatballs filled with fresh vegetables, seasonal ingredients, love and tenderness :). I made sure to use sweet potatoes which has an immense amount of vitamin A and is good source of vitamin C. In addition it contains anti-inflammatory benefits reducing swelling all over the body. So make sure to eat your nutrients.

Now you are warned that this soup will make even the most picky eatters delighted, especially since there is a slight splash of sweetness from the sweet potatoes. Not forgetting my vegetarian readers the meat can just be omitted and more hearty vegetables can be added such as acorn squash, roasted beets or cauliflower which are all in season for Fall. Side note take advantage of the amazing produce that we get this time of year not just the pupkin but mascadine grapes, pomegrantes, and swiss chard.
