Ingredients

1 large sweet potato

3/4 cup canned light coconut milk

2 1/4 cups vegetable broth

1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded and diced into 1/2 inch pieces

1 1/2 tsp curry powder

19 oz can black beans, rinsed and drained

2 packed cups coarsely chopped kale (or other leafy green like baby spinach)

1/4 tsp sea salt (you might want to add more salt, I always put less than recommended)

Preparation

Microwave sweet potato on high for 4 to 6 minutes or until very tender. Split potato in half with a knife. Use a pot holder to hold each half and scoop pulp into a soup pot; discard skin.

Add coconut milk and mash with a potato masher or fork until mixture is fairly smooth. Stir in broth, bell pepper, and curry powder. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.

Stir in beans and heat all the way through. Stir in leafy greens; keep stirring until just wilted. Stir in salt.
