💡 Chef's Tips & Variations
- Swap the sweet potatoes for cubed butternut squash in the fall for a deeper, caramelized sweetness.
- Add a pinch of smoked paprika or a splash of liquid smoke to give the broth a subtle smoky depth.
- Stir in a handful of wilted kale or spinach during the last minute of cooking for an extra boost of greens.
- For a protein punch, toss in cooked chickpeas or crumbled tempeh cubes just before serving.
