Vegetarian Delirium ROASTED SWEET POTATO SOUP

This delicious soup is very easy to make and perfect for cold February days. I usually roast extra sweet potatoes on a Sunday and have them ready for when I serve this for a lovely lunch on Monday. (Bake some focaccia to go with it to make it extra special.)
