Sweet Potato Hash Browns
Ingredients & Preperation: Select 4-5 sweet potatoes. Depending on size of the potatoes, I average 1-2 per person. Peel the skin off. I think it effects the overall taste. Try it both ways and decide for yourself.
Cut potatoes in half length wise so they fit in your food processor. Using the grating/shredding attachment, grate all the sweet potatoes.
Meanwhile, heat up your grill on medium-high. I use a flat double-burner grill, but any size will work. I have used both no

Organic Heirloom Tomato Soup
I don’t think it’s physically possible not to like this soup if you like tomatoes. Even all of the kids we have given it to completely approve of it and there is nothing “bad” in it.
