Thanksgiving is this Thursday and if you happen to have a whole gang of people arriving in town, I think today’s recipe may be of interest to you! It’s a tasty one that can easily be prepared in the crock pot, limiting the number of dishes you have to do and making it easy to prep everything in the morning so you can enjoy time with your family all day long.
Sweet potatoes take center stage in this recipe for a comforting, stick-to-your-ribs healthy soup that will make your whole house smell fantastic as it cooks away all day long in the crock pot.
I’m not sure why it has taken me so long to break out my slow cooker this year, but now that it’s out, I know crock pot meals will be happening quite often in our house as the temperatures outside continue to drop. I love the way the slow cooker makes meal prep a breeze and there’s something so cozy about smelling your dinner cook away all day long.
This fall, Silk is encouraging everyone to participate in a #MeatlessMondayNight challenge and this slow cooker sweet potato soup is a meatless, vegan and dairy-free recipe that’s still full of flavor and wonderfully satisfying. Sweet potatoes are a fantastic source of vitamin C, potassium and fiber so you can feel good about going back for seconds of this one! We enjoyed it for dinner in our house along with a grilled cheese sandwich on the side.

This looks so yummy and definitely making it this winter. I have been using the crock pot on a regular basis since having both kids. Makes life so much easier.
Mmm this sounds delicious!
Sounds amazing! Soup is PERFECT on these chilly nights!!
Looks easy and delicious and at this time of year…bring it on!
Yum! thanks for sharing, i’ll definitely be making this one soon!
I’ve been making a similar soup this winter…so delicious & filling!
Posts like this really make me wish I had a slow cooker!! 😀
They’re pretty cheap on Amazon!! Just sayin’ … 😉
I made this last night in a large pot – I don’t have a crock pot either. I cooked it on low. The only modification that I made is I browned the onions and celery first with a tbsp (estimating) of oil. I then added all of the remaining ingredients, brought it to a boil and let it simmer for about 45 minutes before blending everything. It was a quick and easy meal, and tasted FANTASTIC!!!
Thank you for the dinner inspiration Julie!
Yum!!! This sounds so good! Love the Silk in it.
This looks so good. It reminds me of Panera’s Autumn Squash Soup which I can’t get enough of this week.
I’m enjoying Panera’s Autumn Squash soup as I read this post! Skinnytaste has a squash soup recipe that I’m dying to try!
Oooh! I need to try that!
Oh my goodness this looks delicious! As someone with so many intolerances (gluten AND dairy…I know painful when your favorite foods are ice cream and cheese), this seems like the perfect light soup after the amount of eating I’m about to do Thanksgiving. I hope all is well with you and that precious baby! xo
This sounds delicious! Further proof that I need to get a slow cooker!
I’m not a fan of sweet potato but the hubby is and I’m sure he would love this soup!
Yum!
Oh my goodness, Julie! This looks so good! I absolutely love soup in the fall and winter, but sometimes get stuck making the same few over and over again (butternut squash soup, carrot soup, vegetable soup). I love sweet potatoes so this is definitely going into my recipe box! Yum!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Awesome!! Hope you love it!
Mmm sounds good and looks very simple!
Crock pot recipes are the best! Love how they make the house smell delicious, too. No need for scented candles 🙂
I love crock pot meals, especially this time of year! This soup looks delicious and I can’t wait to try it!
I’ve used so many of your recipes and they’re a regular part of my daily life now, so thanks for adding another one. I’m hosting Thanksgiving this year for the first time ever for 20 people (!!!), so I’m looking for some extras. This looks good and easy!! Plus one of my nieces is a vegetarian, and this fits the bill!
Love, love sweet potatoes and this sounds perfect with a grilled cheese sandwich. I want to incorporate meatless Mondays into my menu.
Just made this in my Instant Pot on the pressure cooker setting … yummmmmmy.
(and it sits on “keep warm” until we come back and open the lid!)
thanks for the recipe
Awesome!!! Hope you love it!
I am eating it right now!!!!
I just made this today but used precubed butternut squash since I was out of sweet potatoes. It is sooo good!! Added bonus: my house smells fantastic on this dreary, rainy day – so cozy. Thanks for the recipe!
This looks amazing! I’m lactose intolerant and drink Silk all the time! So this is a perfect recipe for me! Thanks for sharing!
