There are few soups that are more comforting than Leek and Potato Soup. A favorite in Ireland, this soup is perfect for a cold, rainy day, and is just what is needed to warm your whole body. It is thick and creamy, with just a mild onion flavor from the leeks. With a slice of good, hearty bread, you’ll feel warmed to the core.
