Arthur the sweet potato was getting old, and he knew it. And frankly, he didn’t like it. His wife had left him for a younger fingerling potato a few years back, and he was ready for some new zest in his life. “Forget all these sweet potatoes. Who needs ‘em?” He marched down the street to the home of Celeste, the sassy young apple who had moved in a few weeks ago. She had the perfect amount of tang and sweetness. Just what he needed. “Celeste, I’m going to roast, you’re going to saute, and we are going to go pureeing tonight at the new disco downtown, the Soupertron. And I won’t take no for an answer.” “Oh Arthur, you’re so strong and masculine. Yet when you puree you’re so sweet and mushy. Just how I love my sweet potatoes. I’d love to! Let me go get my purse.” So they went to the Soupertron (which is an awesome club, by the way – you should totally check it out), and pureed the night away. And they were fabulous. All the other sweet potato ladies were totally jealous of their moves. But they knew Arthur was officially off the market. Once you puree with an apple, there’s no going back.

Very delicious! We loved this soup!
I need more stars! I was a little spooked by the idea of apple and sweet potato, and also since last week’s chickpea was not my favorite. But this is *so* delicious. I’m sad I only ordered one quart!
What a wonderful fall soup! I agree with the other comments — VERY DELICIOUS!
This soup was amazing!! Definitely the best I’ve ever had from Soupergirl. It was sweet, but not too sweet. Yummy!
This soup is a good example of how even a relatively simple soup can be delicious when prepared by skilled cooks using excellent ingredients in the right proportions. I enjoyed this soup served cold as much as when it was served hot!
really good and a great use of straightforward ingredients. I prefer some of the more unusual combinations of ingredients in other soups’ past, but this one was comforting, delicious and uncomplicated. How many things can you say that about these days???!!
