Sweet Potato Chicken Soup

This Sweet Potato Chicken Soup is the perfect fall and winter meal, combining the sweetness of sweet potatoes with the protein of ground chicken, butter beans, and the earthy taste of kale. With just the right amount of warmth from the chili flakes and depth from the Parmigiano Reggiano, it’s cozy, chunky, and incredibly filling. Ideal for a quick weeknight dinner or as a meal-prep-friendly soup to enjoy all week!
