Sweet potatoes are such a versatile starch and a regular on many folks’ table year-round. Growing up, we ate sweet potatoes candied, whipped and as a pie with vanilla ice cream. I love turning the sweet potato into a smooth, hearty dinner soup — especially during the cold winter months. In this dinner recipe, it’s the turkey smoked collard greens that set it off. I use smoked turkey drumsticks or wings to season the greens. After puréeing the soup until smooth, I pour it into a bowl and spoon in a large portion of greens and turkey right in the middle. Chef’s tip: Use the cooking liquid from the greens to purée the soup.
