5 stars! Easy to make and incredibly delicious. I added a bit more cheese than the recipe called for, and it was perfect. Definitely a keeper!

The potato leek soup was heavenly! The broth was creamy and flavorful, with just the right amount of leeks and potatoes. I also loved the subtle hint of garlic and thyme. My family devoured it!
