I came up with this soup recipe when I got potatoes, leeks, and spinach in my CSA box and didn't know what to do with them. It turned out delicious and is perfect for fall vegetables.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 leeks, chopped, or more to taste
½ yellow onion, chopped
3 cups peeled and cubed potatoes, or more to taste
4 cups water
4 cubes vegetable bouillon
1 bunch fresh spinach, chopped, or more to taste
2 cups milk
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
2 teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon ground paprika
¼ teaspoon chili powder

Directions

Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add leeks and onion; simmer until tender, about 7 minutes. Add potatoes, water, and bouillon cubes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes.
Stir in spinach and cook until wilted and soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Add milk, pepper, salt, paprika, and chili powder. Let cook for 5 minutes more; adjust spices to taste.

Cook's Notes:

Add more or less spinach depending on how much you enjoy it. Also, make sure the spinach is chopped into small pieces, otherwise it is difficult to eat with a spoon.

You can use chicken or vegetable broth instead of water and bouillon cubes.
