1 tablespoon canola oil
1 large onion, diced (for 2 cups)
1/2 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
1/2 yellow bell pepper, seeded and diced
2 carrots, diced (for about 1 1/4 cups)
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon ginger, peeled and grated
1 large sweet potato, peeled (for 2 1/2 cups)
6 cups chicken broth or 6 cups vegetable broth
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, with juices
2/3 cup creamy peanut butter
2 teaspoons honey
1/2 cup green onion, sliced (for garnish)
1/2 cup peanuts, chopped (for garnish) (optional)

1
Saute onion, peppers, and carrots in canola oil, stirring about every minute until veggies soften and begin to brown (about 5 minutes).
2
Add cayenne, black pepper, garlic, and ginger and continue to cook 1 minute.
3
Add sweet potato, broth, and tomatoes.
4
Bring to boil, then lower heat and simmer 20 minutes.
5
Puree soup with an immersion blender ( I leave mine a little chunky). If you don't have an immersion blender, it can be pureed in a regular blender in batches.

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
