I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much broth.

The soup was good, but it was a bit too thick for my liking. I think I'll add some more broth next time.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more salt and pepper next time.

I added some chopped bacon to the soup and it was amazing! The smokiness of the bacon really took the flavor up a notch.

I'm not a huge fan of leeks, but this soup changed my mind. The flavors were well-balanced and the soup was so comforting.

This soup was a hit! My family loved the creamy texture and the subtle sweetness of the leeks. I added a bit of extra garlic and thyme, and it turned out perfect.
