Sharing this homestyle recipe for making a delicious potato leek soup loaded with cooked veggies and ham in a flavorful non-creamy broth.
Delicious & Hearty Potato Leek Soup Recipe
Both comforting and satisfying at any time of the year, nothing beats a delicious and hearty homemade soup. Whether it’s a vegetarian soup such as our roasted pumpkin soup or a non-vegetarian option like our tasty meat and cabbage soup or this Instant Pot bean soup with bacon; soup is a welcome meal. We added pieces of cooked ham in this non-creamy potato leek soup but alternatively, pieces of sausage can be added instead. Simply chop the sausage into 1/2″ slices and add to the soup when it’s close to being fully cooked.
