Tu Bishvat may be on the way and the weather may be nice, but we still have February ahead of us to contend with. Keep warm with this delicious and hearty hot soup. A friend recently told me to put rice in soups and then puree it to make it thick. It really works great.

Ingredients

1 large onion diced
oil
1 large sweet potato (or more)
4 medium potatoes
2 tablespoons rice (white or brown)
water
2 tablespoons onion soup mix
salt and pepper
soy milk or Richs whip (optional)

Saute the onion in oil. Peel and cut the sweet potato and potatoes into small chunks and add to the pot. Saute 2 more minutes. Add water, rice, soup mix and salt. Bring to a boil and then lower flame and and cook for until everything is soft (about 40 minutes). Puree the soup with a hand blender. The soup will be very thick so you can thin it with some soy milk or Richs whip.
