Potato and Leek Soup
As we move away from the winter months, some may also move away from soups. But this potato and leek soup is the perfect bridge from the frigid, dark, cold days of winter to brisk bright spring days.
I created this recipe for the Fred Meyer Easter E-book, so be sure to be on the look out for that in the coming weeks (I’ll be sure to post a reminder of that as well).
This recipe is SO easy! It is vegetarian and packed with flavor. With just a few simple ingredients, you have a decadent, rich, soup.
It has already been requested several times in our home haha. I even shared it with our friend, Loren, who also enjoyed it 🙂
