						Directions:
						Drain clams, reserving juice; set clams aside.  Add enough water to clam juice to make 2 1/2 cups liquid.  In a large saucepan, bring the clam liquid to a boil.  Stir in sweet potatoes, onion, celery, sweet red pepper, garlic and thyme.  Return to boiling; reduce heat.  
Cover and simmer about 10 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender.  Mash mixture slightly with a potato masher.  Stir in clams, undrained tomatoes and lime juice.  Return to a boil; reduce heat and cook for 2 minutes more.
