1 large sweet potato, peeled and diced (about 3 cups)

Instructions
- In a large pot, warm the oil over medium heat. Add the carrot and onion, sprinkle with salt and cook until onion becomes translucent, about 5 min. Add in spices and stir together.
- Add diced squash and sweet potato to the pot, pour in vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until potato and squash are tender, about 15 minutes.
- Once vegetables are tender, add cubed tofu. Blend with an immersion blender, or transfer to a large blender and blend until smooth.
- To make pita chips, slice a whole wheat pita into triangles. Place on a parchment lined pan and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Bake at 350 until crispy and lightly golden, about 10 minutes.
