      Title: *Potato-Leek Soup
 Categories: Vegetarian, Mcdougall, Soups
      Yield: 4 servings
 
      4 c  Peeled & chunked potatoes
      4 c  Water [or broth]
      2 x  Leeks, white parts only,
           - washed well & sliced
    1/2 t  Onion powder
    1/4 t  Garlic powder
    1/8 t  Freshly ground white pepper
    1/4 t  Dried dill (optional)
    1/2 c  Chopped scallion (optional)
 
  Place the potatoes, water and leeks in a medium-sized soup
  pot. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and cook until the
  potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a blender or food
  processor and process until smooth and creamy. Or transfer only half
  of the soup to a blender or processor and blend until smooth and
  creamy. Return to the pan and stir to mix. This will yield a creamy
  soup with chunks of vegetables.
  
  Add the remaining ingredients. Heat through. (If you are using the
  optional ingredients, cook over very low heat for 10 minutes.) Serve

  Comments: using a hand blender right in the soup pot worked fine.
