Creamy Sweet Potato Soup (by Dannon)

I needed just a 1/2 cup of plain yogurt for a recipe I made (this herb dip) - and Ted couldn't find just a small amount, so he bought the bigger container. It had this recipe on the foil - and it looked so yummy that I had to try it. It is AMAZINGLY delicious!! I hope you try it -it's so worth it, and pretty fast, too! As a note, I didn't have any parsley or cilantro, or pumpkin seeds for garnish, but it was delish without. Madeleine could NOT get enough of this - she kept on saying "Yuuuuum" "mmmmm" and when we were done, she wanted more, and then ate a whole second bowl!
