Potato leek soup is a comforting, creamy dish with roots in French cuisine. This classic recipe combines tender potatoes, mild-flavored leeks, and often a splash of cream or butter for richness. Typically seasoned with garlic, onions, salt, and pepper, it delivers a delicate, earthy flavor. High in fiber, potassium, and vitamin C, potatoes are great for supporting heart health and immunity, while leeks are loaded with antioxidants and vitamins A, K, and B6, promoting healthy digestion and bone health. Though nutritious at its core, the addition of cream or butter can increase saturated fat content, making moderation important for those watching their intake. This soup is often enjoyed as a wholesome starter or a warming entrée, especially during colder months.
