Leek Potato & Roasted Red Pepper Soup

By

When the weather out side is frightful, then homemade soup is so delightful! Let it rain! Let it snow! Let it go! Soups’s on! And, that exactly what’s happening as I make this boholicious ‘Leek Potato & Roasted Red Pepper Soup’!

The red peppers give the soup just a tad of tang, which seems to blend well with the mild potatoes and the more delicate sweet leeks~~one thing I love to do with soups is make a really big pot then put some in quart canning jars and either refrigerating or freezing them for later use~~be sure to leave about and inch or so of space at the top if you’re freezing~~don’t fill to the rim~
