Soup always does well. It's an excellent way to use up vegetables that are threatening to wilt - or even already a little wilted - but also a very easy way to eat some extra vegetables. This leek-courgette soup has nice lots of vegetables and some potato for extra filling and creaminess.

This is one of those typical soups where you just add an onion and some garlic fruit, all the vegetables and the liquid and wait for it to cook. Then you blend it smooth with the hand blender or in the blender, and it's ready to serve. It doesn't get much easier. Actually, you don't need recipe for it at all, because you can just as easily use other ingredients and also achieve a delicious result.

Still, this soup is worth trying. The zucchini and leeks go very well with the thyme. While the potato and vegetable milk just make the soup creamy, the lemon juice completes it with a sourness. And lemon and thyme are already so delicious together.

For this recipe you will need a blender or hand blender.
