List of Ingredients
Potato and Leek Soup
1/2 teaspoon unsalted butter
1 large white onion (peeled and diced)
2 ribs celery (chopped)
3 medium potatoes (peeled and chopped)
3 large leeks (cleaned and sliced very thin)
3 cups water
2 cups Land O'Lakes Fat Free Half & Half -- 3 cups 2%
milk - total
1 cup AE Fat Free Skim Milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Recipe
Melt butter in a medium stock pot over medium heat and add onions. Cook
slowly until slightly translucent. Stir frequently.
Add celery and cook for about two minutes more.
Add leeks and cook over medium heat slowly, until they are limp. Stir
frequently
Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the potatoes and water. Cook until the
potatoes are slightly soft. This will take 20-25 minutes. Keep adding just
enough water to keep the potato and leek mixture just covered.
When the potatoes are soft, add the milk slowly stirring continuously. Add
the salt and pepper. Gently reheat the soup.
