It's an amazingly forgiving recipe, as it doesn't require precise measurements and will still turn out fine. I prefer chicken stock. If you have no potatoes, you can always use leftover mashed potatoes or even potato flakes.

I'm an absolute disgrace in the kitchen but I've done this soup few times now following your recipe and it has been amazingly tasty every time. So thanks for posting simple recipes that even people like me with zero skills in the kitchen can do successfully ❤❤

Perfect. Lunch tomorrow. I prepare lunch for everyday work. After Covid, I don't trust restaurants in Florida anymore. Florida is no longer the same.

Yes. This is a very good easy weeknight soup. Is a perfect use of mix matched leftover Thanksgiving ingredients. So grateful to avoid food waste! 😅

I used to make potato soup with onion, and celery. I've never tried leeks. Hmmm. Might have to try something new. Thanks.

Man, this looks really good. I will try it. I think the hint of fresh nutmeg makes sense. And thanks for actually SHOWING how to prep a leek. Thank you. ❤

I tried it today for my mom and she said it was delicious! I substituted greek yoghurt for plain yoghurt though…. Thanks for the recipe!

I also cook like this but never tried a soup of potato as a base... yoghurt is a interedting addition to a sauce.. Im Greek and i have yoghurt as one of the most important and nutritional material of all...its so surprisingly beautiful to see that yoghurt is being used like this also in a place across the Atlantic... maybe yoghurt isnt that a huge secret after all... I would cook like this a soup made of yellow pumpkin or from vegetables like beetroots... or spinach..
