I was scanning a food website about a month ago and came across a carrot vichyssoise recipe, I was intrigued, but not enough to make it right away. I sat on the idea for a while and made some modifications. I didn't write the recipe down but vichyssoise is normally made up of leaks and potatoes. I decided that I would replace the potatoes with sweet potatoes. It turned out amazing. I tied the vichyssoise warm and cold. I think that it had wonderful flavor warm and cold. I served it with Greek yogurt, it added a slightly tangy but creamy texture. 
Ingredients:
- 3 sweet potatoes  
- 2 leeks  
- 6 carrots  
- 6 cups chicken stock 
- Slice the leeks down the center and rinse under running water 
- Slice the leeks making half moons 
- Place leeks into cool water so the residual dirt can fall to the bottom of the container  
- Peel and cube the sweet potatoes  
- Peel and chop carrots into 1 inch sections  
- Place into a dutch oven and boil vegetables until tender  
- Blend in small batches with the lid part way open to allow for steam to escape  
- Serve warm or cold
