  1. This was a very tasty soup, quick and easy to throw together. We didn't puree the soup, it was perfect as it was...(personal preference only). The soup was very comforting and satisfying. I don't like evaporated milk so used 1% and a little hard cream, it worked beautifully. The soup was rich and creamy. Thanks so much for sharing this treat.

  3. This was easy and fast. I don't know if I'd bother to cook (saute?) the potatoes and leeks in the oil first - just boil then simmer in the water might be ok. I used my immersion blender - there were still a few chunks of potato left in the final soup. Yummy stuff!

I'm married, I have 2 kids (both boys), and I live in Australia. I have loved cooking for as long as I can remember, and have become completely addicted to browsing through Zaar looking for new recipes! I have a small animal shelter for rabbits and guinea pigs, and spend most of my time looking after kids or critters!. My favourite cookbooks are The Essential Pasta Cookbook, The Central Cookery Book, Flo Bjielkie-Peterson's Country Cookbook, and Greek Cooking (I bought that one in Greece, and it's FANTASTIC). At the minute, we are getting ready to move, which is forcing me to sort through my recipe cabinet. I have been trying out all those recipes that are scribbled on pieces of paper, or torn from magazines, so I can decide ifthey are keepers or not. So far I've found a lot of keepers, and will work at posting them on here. I'm passionate about a lot of things, mainly my kids, animals, and cooking. I won't even start on my peeves, we'll be here all night! lol
