Leek White Bean & Potato Soup

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 2 leeks, sliced
  • 1 celery stalk, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 russet potato, peeled, cubed
  • 2 cups (or 1 can) large white beans such as cannelloni or lima beans with the liquid
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cracked pepper
  • 1 Tbsp fresh herbs (parsley, thyme, sage, rosemary)
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 cups broth (chicken, beef, or vegetable) preferably homemade

Directions

  1. In a large pot melt the butter. Add the leeks and celery and sauté for about 5 minutes until soft and translucent.
  2. Next add the garlic, potato, white beans, salt, pepper, fresh herbs, and bay leaf.
  3. Pour in your broth of choice and bring contents to a simmer. Let the soup simmer for 20-30 minutes. Once potatoes are soft when pricked with a fork, remove the bay leaf and blend to a smooth creamy consistency. Add more broth or a splash of milk to thin if needed.
  4. Serve with fresh garlic bread and Tabasco!
