Every fall I make this soup called Autumn Root Soup. We look forward to this creamy vegetable soup and serve it up with some baked chicken. What I love about this recipe is that you can bend the recipe - add more, change it up, etc.

Ingredients
3cans chicken broth
1small leek
1celery root
1cupcarrotspeeled & sliced – I use baby carrots
1celery stock – sliced
1baking potato
1cup1/2 and 1/2
1/4cupsour cream
Salt and pepper to taste
Dash of white pepperoptional
Instructions
Cut up your vegetables.
Place chicken broth, leeks, and veggies into slow cooker.
Cook on low all day (8 hours or until veggies are tender).
When the veggies are tender – use your wand blender or regular blender to puree the veggies into the soup.
It should be nice and smooth after blending and if your veggies happen to be a little crunchy still – give them a little more time to cook. They’ll cook faster the smaller they are.
Add your 1/2 & 1/2 and sour cream. You can either blend it or stir it in.
Serve and enjoy! We usually serve it with some baked chicken.

Notes
