In a large soup pot, heat the oils over medium heat for 3-5 minutes. Add the onions, celery and carrots and sauté until onions are translucent. Add the sweet potatoes, garlic, ginger, jalapeños and cilantro stems and sauté until slightly cooked, about 3 minutes. Stir in chicken broth, Oh Olive Garlic Seasoning Blend, chopped tomatoes and simmer until sweet potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes.
Turn soup down to low and add peanut butter and coconut milk, stir until thoroughly combined and peanut butter has melted. Add chopped spinach and cook for about 1 minute to wilt spinach. Taste and add salt and pepper.
Make it fun and serve in a pie pumpkin! Garnish with Cilantro, sour cream, bacon or any of your favorites before serving. Makes enough for 4-6 good size servings.
