CROCK POT POTATO AND LEEK SOUP (VICHYSSOISE)
I got the original recipe for this from Cooks.com. I love potato and leek soup and didn't want to spend the time watching this or heating up the kitchen so doing it in my crock pot was perfect. When this was finished cooking I pureed the soup. You don't have to do this if you don't want to, but this is the way I like it.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful vegetables and a good-quality broth will make all the difference in the taste of your soup.
- Don't overcrowd the slow cooker: If you add too many ingredients, the soup won't cook evenly and may end up mushy.
- Cook on low heat: This will help the flavors to meld and develop, and will prevent the soup from boiling and becoming watery.
- Don't overcook the soup: The potatoes and leeks should be tender but still have a slight bite to them.
- Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste before serving. You can also garnish the soup with fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives.
