Then every time it is like I am cooking like the "Iron Chef" because I have to look for new recipes to try that include the vegetable or fruit that was in my box. It is a fun cooking challenge.
The vegetable in the box for this recipe was: LEEKS
I had two large bolstering leeks that I did know what to do. So my internet recipe search began and it seemed like the most popular combination was a Potato Leek Soup. I discovered many recipes and a lot of them called for cream, however, I finally found this Potato Leek Soup Recipe from Simply Recipe that was dairy free.
I find that the true test of a recipe is that I can modify it but it still turns out wonderfully. That's how I feel about this recipe. I omitted the water because I wanted the full flavour of the chicken stock and I like thicker soups. I used what I had for the seasonings which were fresh chopped chives, dried thyme, dried majoram, dried parsley, salt & pepper. I served this soup with garlic toast. Perfect combination!
