This simple Leek and Courgette Soup is super delicious, chunky, and vegan! Perfect for lunch or as a starter.
Gosh, it seems like an age since I last posted a recipe (just over a week) but having 2 children home for the Easter holidays means getting some quiet time to myself has not been easy so hence the radio silence!
I don’t know about you but after overindulging on chocolate over the Easter period all I want to do is eat lots of healthy vegetable-based food.
This Leek and Courgette Soup came about one lunchtime when there wasn’t much left in the fridge so these ingredients just found each other and became soup!
My family was very impressed with my chunky soup creation so I’ll be making this again.
I always feel better when I’ve given the family a healthy bowl of soup packed full of vegetables so it’s a win/win situation all around!

Looks delicious. I often make leek and potato and rosemary soup, but I’ve never tried it with courgette. This is the inspiration to give it a go!

What a lovely recipe Camila, and i know exactly what you mean about craving fresher foods after the indulgences of Easter. I’m going to make a big batch of soup and ratatouille this week for that very same reason! Thanks for hooking up with me on Simple and in Season 🙂

Thanks! High five to healthier food Katie – I even made a smoothie today:-)

A lovely flavour combination in a soup here Camilla. I love leek soup and courgette soup, but I have never had them before.
Camilla
Thanks Dannii, I hadn’t had them together before either but a winning combination:-)
