Yes the whole leek, green and white parts. Spinach – hmm, that’s interesting – one bunch I’d say. Can’t remember now. You can’t really do it wrong.

- true about the potatoes being truly Irish – but we’re about making Healthy alternatives here and white potatoes just don’t cut it – sorry. Too much starch and turn to sugar too fast.

Oh you can see where we stopped in Texas on our 17,000 mile 5.5 month trip through the US and Canada here: http://www.youngsnowbirds.com/places-visited/ - Engaged!
Jon, most people agree that Austin isn’t really Texas. It isn’t at all like the rest of the state and I can attest to that, having been to Austin and around it a bit. Not many people in Austin speak “Texan” with little or no accent. Hit southern Texas around Corpus Christi and regions around it and you’re in real cattle country, full on Texas towns.Anyway, congrats, she’s gorgeous!

well you can’t really, that sorta defeats the purpose of using whole grains, not pre-processed flour. You won’t get the same fluffy pancakes unless you go buy some whole spelt. Try it, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the results. - How To Eat Healthy Traveling – Part Two, Dining Out

This green soup is one of my top 3 soups that Darlene and I make. I LOVE it. We make this about two times a month and make enough for three or four days each time
Mmm, I will make this during the week. It’s very timely your post. I have an Irish friend who reminices about her childhood and how Kale and Leeks were a staple in her household. Unfortunately her Mom boiled the heck out of the veggies, taking all nutrients out. This didn’t give her good feelings about Kale to this day…
I Managed an Irish store for 10 years and I’m not even Irish! The Irish people are welcoming, incredibly hospitable, spin a good yarn and love to have fun. Now some of my favourite Irish quotes:
May those who love us love us,
May those who don’t love us,
May God turn their hearts,
If he may not turn their hearts,
May he turn their ankles so that we know
Them by their limping…

May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face.
And rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.
Have a great week and I look forward to the next recipes..

Sounds nice but an Irish recipe without a potatoe in it? come on
mark

I have to agree. This soup is simple and amazing. We give it a thumbs up!
Cool blog Rob, love where you’re going with this.
Thanks buddy. Read your post today about the VitaMix. Known about them for years, gotta get me one.
This soup looks absolutely fabulous! The kids and I often eat soup for lunch so I’ll likely be trying this very soon.

Annie, this soup is out of this world. All your greens in one easy to make, tasty recipe. My personal fav (so far)
In the ingredient list it doesn’t list spinach but in the directions, it says to add the spinach…how much? Also, do I use the top part of the leek or just the white?
Thanks.
Yes the whole leek, green and white parts. Spinach – hmm, that’s interesting – one bunch I’d say. Can’t remember now. You can’t really do it wrong.
