This soup is a great way to use up leftover potatoes. I usually have a few leftover potatoes after I make mashed potatoes or roasted potatoes, and this soup is the perfect way to use them up.

I'm not a huge fan of leeks, but I really enjoyed this soup. The leeks were mild and flavorful, and they paired perfectly with the potatoes and cheese.

This soup is a great make-ahead meal. I made a big batch on the weekend and then had leftovers for lunch all week. It's also really easy to freeze, so I always have some on hand.
