Ingredients
1 Medium leek 4 Large potatoes1 glove garlic, minced1 zucchini2 cups chicken broth1 cup half and half (milk or cream can be used as a substitute)salt and pepper to tasteparsley
Directions
Remove the tops and root of the leek and peel off one or two layers of the bulb before chopping

Saute leek and garlic for 3-4 minutes or until tender. The recipe i used called for bacon and to saute in the dripping but olive oil works just as well.

Add the chicken broth, sliced potatos, and zucchini and let simmer for 20 minutes or until potatoes and zucchini are soft. I usually let it sit longer to absorb all the flavors.

Stir in half and half, pepper, salt and parsley.

Blend use an immersion blender or using a regular blender but in parts. S

erve and enjoy!
