Ingredients

    6 cups of Vegetable broth (you can use whatever broth you want but I use vegetable broth)
    4 medium potatoes, peeled and cut in 1-inch pieces (4 cups approx.)
    2 large onions, chopped (2 cups approx)
    6 leeks, chopped
    1 teaspoon dried oregano
    3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
    1 Avocado, puréed
    2 tablespoons margarine

Tips

The original recipe called for heavy cream (not avocado) and butter (not margarine)


Directions

Heat the broth in a saucepan or large pot over medium-high heat. Stir the potatoes, onion and leeks in the saucepan. reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 20-minutes.
Using a potato masher (I used my blender) mash the potatoes in the broth until it becomes a coarse textured soup. Add the oregano. parsley, avocado and margarine and cook for 5 minutes, stirring often.
