Dairy Free Potato Leek Soup image

I love leeks, and leek soup, and wanted to introduce my Significant Other to the dish. But he is definitely a meat and potatoes sort of guy, so I compiled this version of the dish for him. Remove the bacon and use veggie oil for a great vegetarian meal. Also tastes great with a dollop of soy sour cream substitute. It's dairy free for my milk allergy, but I'm sure regular milk products work just fine.

Categories     Potato

Time 1h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 cups diced potatoes (Yukon gold, Sweet white, or Red New Potatoes work best)
2 large leeks (or 3 medium)
6 cups vegetable broth
1 cup soy cream
1 (12 ounce) package bacon
1 tablespoon garlic powder
salt, and
white pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Please note that the bacon and leeks should be cooked at the same time that the broth and potatoes are being prepared.
  • Bring vegetable broth to a boil in a 4 quart pot.
  • Add diced potatoes and cover the pot.
  • Allow to simmer until tender.
  • Chop the bacon into 1/2 inch chunks and cook in a large pan.
  • Slice the leeks thinly, using only the bulb and the lighter green parts of the leaves.
  • Once the bacon is crispy, remove the bacon pieces, leaving the grease. Set bacon aside.
  • Sauté the leeks in the bacon grease until the darkest slices yield slightly to a spoon or spatula.
  • Cover and allow to steam for 2-3 minutes until the dark slices cut easily with the edge of your stirring utensil.
  • Add the cooked leeks to your potatoes.
  • Using a hand blender or food processor, blend the potatoes and the leeks, slowly adding the soy cream and the spices.
  • Gently fold in bacon pieces.
  • Serve hot, or chill for a great summer cool down.

I love that this soup is dairy-free. It's so hard to find creamy soups that don't have dairy in them. This soup is just as creamy and delicious as any dairy-based soup, but it's much healthier.

I'm not a huge fan of leeks, but I decided to give this soup a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The leeks are cooked until they're soft and sweet, and they add a lovely flavor to the soup. I will definitely be making this soup again.

This soup was a hit at my last dinner party. I served it with a crusty bread and a salad, and everyone raved about it. The soup is rich and comforting, and the leeks add a touch of elegance. I will definitely be making this soup again for my next par

This dairy-free potato leek soup is a lifesaver! I have a dairy allergy and it's so hard to find creamy soups that I can eat. This soup is not only delicious, but it's also really easy to make. I highly recommend it!
