Awesome Leek and Sweet potato Soup

I love this time of year it is perfect Soup weather and my garden is providing lots of tasty veggies for soup. This week we harvested Leeks, Sweet Potatoes and Carrots so that is where Awesome Leek and Sweet potato Soup came from. Got to love soup straight from the Organic Kitchen Garden.
