This cozy bowl of ‘Snowy Night Soup’ gets requests from the kids every single snowy night!

There’s something incredibly comforting about a bowl of rustic potato and leek soup, especially as the leaves start to turn and the air gets crisp. This recipe is inspired by my grandmother’s kitchen, where the aroma of simmering leeks and potatoes always brought a sense of warmth and coziness. It’s perfect for those busy weekdays when you want something hearty and homemade but don’t have hours to spend in the kitchen. Just toss everything into the slow cooker before you head out for the day, and come home to a delicious, ready-to-eat meal.
This soup pairs beautifully with a crusty loaf of bread, perfect for dipping and soaking up every last drop. A simple side salad with a light vinaigrette can add a refreshing contrast to the creamy texture of the soup. If you’re feeling indulgent, a grilled cheese sandwich on the side makes for a classic and satisfying combination.
