I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes, but I decided to give this recipe a try and I'm so glad I did! The soup was surprisingly delicious. It was creamy, flavorful, and had just the right amount of sweetness. I'll definitely be making this again.

This bisque is amazing! It's so creamy and flavorful, and the sweet potatoes give it a wonderful sweetness. I've made it twice now and both times it's been a hit. Highly recommend!

I made this soup last night and it was delicious! I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth and it was still very flavorful. I also added a bit of cayenne pepper for a little kick. Will definitely make this again!
