This soup is amazing and so full of flavor.
I make this Leak And Potato Soup a lot and when I do I freeze it into smaller portions for my son. He absolutely loves it with mashed potatoes.
It is so nice to have a bowl of this Leak and Potato Soup in the winter time. You could even serve it as a starter before your Christmas Meal. Of course I am going way ahead of myself here as we are still in July but what I mean is this soup is so hearty and delicious why not cook up some batches through out the year. The family will thank you for it.
