Chicken, Sweet Potato and Spinach Soup image

My mom made this for me every time I was sick; it was the only thing I could keep down. It was mild but I love it even when I'm not under the weather. She would use her own roasted chickens, but when I'm not feeling well I don't feel like roasting my own chicken, and the store-bought ones work in a pinch. Serve with crusty bread.

I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes, but I really enjoyed this soup. The sweetness of the potatoes was balanced out by the other ingredients, and the soup had a really nice flavor.

This soup was a hit with my family! The chicken was tender and flavorful, the sweet potatoes added a nice sweetness, and the spinach gave it a boost of nutrients. I will definitely be making this again.
