Ingredients

  • 6 large Yukon Gold Potatos cut into cubes (you can peel if you want I don't usually with these potatos)
  • 1 large box Organic Chicken Broth
  • 2 bunches Leeks sliced white parts only
  • 1 8 oz container Sour Cream
  • 2 cups Sharp white or yellow cheddar cheese
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp. fresh ground pepper
  • 3 Tablespoons Butter
  • 1 cup water

Cooking Instructions

Saute leeks in melted butter until tender. Boil potatos in chicken broth and water until tender. Do not drain. Add leeks to potatos along with salt and pepper. Remove 2 cups of the mixture and puree in blender. Return to pot and add sour cream and cheese. Simmer for 15 minutes.

Recipe Notes

This soup was a mainstay of many Sunday evening dinners. I served it along side a simple salad of baby greens, shaved parmesan, and an oil and vinegar dressing, hot potato rosemary bread and smoky gouda cheese.

Simple Comfort!

This soup is an easy, cheesy, comfort food! The flavor is rich, full, and earthy and is easily adaptable to adding sauteed mushrooms, bacon bits, and even asparagas! Bon Appetit!
