1. Heat the canola oil in a large, heavy pot. Add the onions and the ginger (if using) and cook 5 to 10 minutes, until the onions are very soft and translucent but not browned.
2. Stir the tomato paste into the onions until well coated. Add the sweet potato, season with the salt and the cayenne pepper (if using), and mix everything together.
3. Pour in the vegetable broth or water and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer, cover and cook 20 minutes, until the sweet potato is tender.
4. Stir in the creamy peanut butter until fully blended. Add the baby spinach and/or shredded chicken (if using) and stir to combine.
