#PC Soup with carrots, tomatoes, sweet potato is Creamy, aromatic, flavorful and tasty , rich with healthy nutrients. Made with oven roasted sweet potatoes and carrots. I do not peel sweet potatoes as the skin is rich anthocyanins, The fiber content of sweet potatoes mainly comes from the peel. Therefore, removing it will decrease your fiber intake.
Research has shown that the nutrients in vegetables and fruits tend to be concentrated around the peel. Thus, removing the peel can reduce your intake of nutrients and antioxidants
