NEW ENGLAND SOUP FACTORY'S SPINACH AND ZUCCHINI BISQUE
Another recipe from the New England Soup Factory, known for their hearty and unusual combinations. The roasted leeks lend a smoky spice to the normally mild spinach and zucchini. I loved to get this when we lived in Boston; at least this way I can make it here in TX. From the Boston Globe paper in 1998.
