Butternut squash is a great swap for the sweet potato, or you could use regular potato for a less sweet flavour. You can also add extra carrot or pepper, or stir through some spinach or kale at the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don't want to use rice, orzo or another small pasta works well, or you can leave it out altogether for a lighter soup. For added protein, beans or chickpeas are a great option, or you can make it more substantial with some cooked shredded chicken or sliced or crumbled sausages. You can also adjust the chilli to suit your taste, or stir in a little reduced fat single cream, half and half or coconut milk for a creamier finish.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-description=\"This spicy sweet potato vegetable rice soup has a lovely balance of flavours, with the natural sweetness of the sweet potato, a little heat from the chilli and plenty of added vegetables.

Garlic bread or focaccia would also pair well if you want something a little more filling or even a grilled cheese sandwich using your favourite low calorie bread could pair well with this to make a more filling meal for the family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To finish, a sprinkle of fresh parsley, cilantro and grated parmesan over the soup just before serving adds extra flavour and makes it feel that little bit more special.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-feast-branding-background\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Storing, Freezing and Reheating<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Storing<\/strong> - Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. As the soup sits, the rice will continue to soak up some of the broth, so don't be surprised if it thickens up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Freezing<\/strong> - This soup can be frozen, but just keep in mind that the rice may soften a little once defrosted. Leave it to cool completely, then freeze in suitable containers for up to 3 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Reheating<\/strong> - Reheat in a saucepan over a medium heat or in the microwave until piping hot. You will likely need to add a splash of extra stock or water when reheating, as the rice can absorb more of the broth as it sits.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More Soup Recipes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Love soup recipes?
