"Leek = onion family. Used only white portions as another recipe suggested. Added bacon, omitted the butter and just used the bacon grease to work the vegetables. Used fat free half & half as someone else did. Soup turned out delicious, flavorful. Served with warmed french bread."

This is great...I used leeks and onions.

I used a little less potato (1 1/2 lbs) and added about 1/2 tsp of chili powder. This recipe was REALLY good. My hubby had 3 dishes of it.

Very Good! I used 1 leek & 1 small onion!

I have made this multiple times and it never fails.

Loved this! The onion/leek thing also confused me, I put in a couple leeks and an onion, and added bacon - so good. Thanks

The leek is missing from the ingredient list. Other than that, this is a new fav!

Observation: leeks and onion are not interchangeable. If this is indeed a 'leek' chowder, leeks ought to be one of the ingredients.

Leek = onion family. Used only white portions as another recipe suggested. Added bacon, omitted the butter and just used the bacon grease to work the vegetables. Used fat free half & half as someone else did. Soup turned out delicious, flavorful. Served with warmed french bread.

The soup was easy to make and very flavorful. I used Smart Balance Light instead of butter and used half skim milk with fat free half and half. My only question is - What constitutes a serving? 1 cup, 2 cups?

This was a great soup! I'd never made soup before, but I found this recipe easy to make. I wasn't sure about the leek/ onion situation since the recipe was a little unclear, so I just used one leek. It turned out really well

Oh. My. God. The onion in the recipe IS the leek, isn't it?? When making this I realized that the onion in the ingredient list is never used in the instructions, and had a small epiphany. The soup was delicious, and this recipe would feed an army, but it needs a general reorganization. Just so we know from the get go...

I'll be yet another person to mention that there's no leek in the ingredient, but can anyone tell me what to DO with this assumed leek? I'm guessing slicing the white and light green parts into rings is the way to go, but would like to be sure...

This was delicious!! Next time I might try it with diced bacon as well. Yummy recipe!

although the ingredient list omitted the leek, I assumed at least one should be included. My husband thought it was magnificent!

Where are the leeks?

Tasted great!! Will definitely make it again! Side note: the recipe calls for leek... but it is not listed in the ingredients.
