Try this yummy and healthy soup this winter! Onions reduce lipoprotein and cholesterol helping to lower blood pressure. 1kg sweet potatoes 2 large onions - sliced 2 garlic cloves crushed 2 carrots - diced 5ml vegetable oil 1l vegetable stock 225ml natural yoghurt Saute all the veg together in the oild for 5 minutes - be careful not to burn any. Add the litre of veg stock and gently bring to the boil simmer for about 25 minutes until veg is fully tender blend together with a hand blender or liquidiser bring back to the boil, add the yoghurt and add a little corrianer as a garnish eat it all up - yummy!

Although the wrong time of the year for me to be thinking about soup Rainbow, I have taken a copy of it and will give it a go in the winter. Okay, so it is months off yet but still it will be a change and something new for me to try, as long as my husband doesn't know about the yoghurt in it. He will tell everyone that it is disgusting and he doesn't eat it, but he hardly knows what I add to things. LOL It sounds different and interesting, and thank you for sharing this recipe with us. The thing that appeals to me most about it is that it reduced cholesterol and helps to lower the blood pressure. The first is okay but the second one isn't so good, so anything that will help I will give a try. :)
