Potato leek soup is our family’s favorite. When I can’t decide which soup to make, someone will yell, “Potato Leek Soup, please!” This is a creamy vegan and gluten-free soup that is so easy, versatile, and packed full of flavor you’ll want to make it weekly.ย
10 Ingredient Soup
Potato leekย soup is very versatile. Just byย altering the herbs, garlic, and garnishย creates a new soup each time you make it. I love the flavor ofย fresh chopped greens justย before serving for added flavorย and color. Adding a meat-free chicken after blending will make a hearty one-dish meal. Keep it chunky,ย creamy, full of vegetables, it will be satisfyingly delicious.ย
Make this soup, you won’t be disappointed. Your family and friends will be asking for more so have plenty on hand!
Have some fun in the kitchen and don’t take yourself too seriously. Subscribe, share, and let me know how “YOU” made it your own. I look forward to your positive comments and suggestions.ย Love from VGFL.
