I'm not usually a fan of potato soup, but this recipe changed my mind. The leeks and broth add so much flavor and depth that it's impossible not to love.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover potatoes and leeks. I had a few leftover potatoes from dinner the night before and a bunch of leeks that were starting to wilt. This soup was the perfect way to use them up and it tasted amazing.
