This recipe really does look easy peasy
The next time I make a homemade chicken stock, I shall make sure to have carrots and leeks at the ready for the soup.
Maybe this soup will be enough to bring Paddy out of hiding!

Actually GM, this recipe I have but it is with parsnips rather than leeks and it is wonderful!!
I make a leek soup but instead of the carrots I use potatoes.

@Steph - It is easy peasy and economical, ideal for a flask in a packed lunch on these bitter cold days.
@WWW - Any mix of vegetables works here. I do have the potato and leek variation.
