Creamy Leek and Potato Soup

Cold days need a warm comfort food... this has a cheeky kick

I moved to Denmark a couple of months ago. In this cold country, soups and lentils are the best comfort food one can ask for. When the weather is dark and grim, a large bowl of soup fuels my soul.

Years ago I tried a creamy leek soup at a dinner and was so taken by it that I begged the host for the recipe. With a few minor changes I hereby share the recipe with you.#leek #soup #stock #chives #winter #lunch #supper #dinner

My son absolutely loves this soup it's he's favourite and I need to make it a few times a month at least

This soup is eaten best in the autumn and winter seasons. It's full of vitamins and minerals to get you through these cold months. The potatoes and cream give it a nice creamy texture. Eat with some fresh rye bread topped with butter and a slice of spicy ripe cheese.

One of our favorite soups. It's hearty, creamy and warm, and you only need a few ingredients. This goes well with fish (some times I even put some fish in the soup like chowder!).

easy and delicious creamy potato soup recipe that can be made in just one pot!  Loaded with creamy potato goodness, this is a favorite comfort food in many household. #soupcontest

Craving some warm comfort food after a cold wet snow day. Just hits the spot.

Tasty creamy and cheesy potato soup. The Muenster and gouda cheese give this soup a really creamy and smooth taste. Delicious!

Here is a standard recipe for leek, which are grown in the cold winter.For variation, add cheese to change the flavor of this simple soup.The key is to cook the leek slowly to bring out the flavor, but don't burn it.If you like a richer flavor, substitute part of the amount of milk with heavy cream.This has a substantially thick consistency. Adjust the thickness as desired. Recipe by KT121

I like to serve this soup warm or cold in small glasses as amuse-bouche. I prefer it mild in order to taste the subtlety of the ingredients but if you and your guests are into bolder flavors, add cayenne or hot sauce.

My trick to maintaining a smooth and creamy broth without completely breaking down the potatoes and creating a grainy texture is to simply cook the potatoes first, then set them aside while I make the soup base. This is my go-to simple version that I use as a base for multiple possibilities of add-ins.

This Creamy Potato Soup Is one of my family's favorites and one of the most comforting meals you can make for your family!

This puréed soup is fantastic. Served hot it will warm you up in the winter. Served cold it is a refreshing lunch in the summer. Don’t forget the garnishes.#vegetarian

A lovely thick creamy soup for a filling meal on it's own

A filling and creamy soup with a hint of bacon

My sister lives near the coast in Germany, she kindly gave me this recipe, well known to the locals in that region and often eaten on stormy days. Today is a wet and windy day with rain coming in from the coast here in Somerset in England, so it felt good to make it. It is wonderful at anytime though ☺

Good winter's dish to warm up.

Hello everyone,I am back and I hope I find you all well. Our vacation back home was very nice and relaxing. The weather had its on and off days but most of the time we had sun, and the beaches were wonderful with beautiful colors and warm waters. I will of course be uploading photos later on this month of our road trip to Greece via the different countries we passed on our way down.I have only been back a few days, so from the hot climate and wearing shorts, a bathing suit all day, to wearing boots and a warm jacket, fighting the strong winds and trying to walk Charlie is a challenge. While the wind was literally pushing us in all directions, I decided that this was definitely a soup day.Hope you enjoy this Fall recipe….:)

Recipe from Country Living.I cooked it for 3 hours and the taste is fantastic.

I had fresh Leeks that our neighbour gave us from her garden. It was a chilly day in Toronto. Time for soup! I used what I had on hand in the house. FreeStyleCooking!

I am a fan of using these premade soup mixes as "soup starters" for my own recipes! 😏😉👌😎 Most of my family members really enjoy potato soups, so I decided to spice it up a bit and make my own for them! 👏👍👍 This was filling, yummy, & warming! 🥰

Easy to make and lasts for a few days in the fridge.

This soup is perfect for when you have some holiday ham leftovers. It comes together quickly and makes a cozy, filling meal. For the salt free seasoning, I use Trader Joe's 21 seasoning salute, but something like Mrs. Dash works too.

Serve it hot or cold (vichyssoise)

Perfectly easy to make and comforting food to enjoy.

I'm not the best at cooking so everything I make is easy and beyond tasty! Never made a leek and potato soup before and I mashed several recipes together. Some say add onion. I hate onion so I didn't add it. But you can add a cup in if you want. Same with pepper (add to taste) and maybe try some cheese grated in? Make it your own and don't worry as long as you have leeks and potatoes...it's a soup...

Fith day of my low fat diet getting myself organized and feeling full of energy. I have tomorrow's lunch ready and two more portions frozen for busy days.

This is super easy to make and is the greatest potatoe soup I have ever made in my life! It's super creamy and bursting with flavor! Must try!!!!

So today I decide to have a creamy pumpkin soup with some carrot. I use my pressure cooker and my blender to prepare this soup.
