Fauxtato Leek Soup 2

This is Mama Miche, and today in my magic kitchen: Fauxtato Leek Soup

This cozy bowl brings together the best of both worlds — creamy potatoes for heartiness and cauliflower for a light, velvety touch. The leeks add that gentle sweetness that makes everything taste like home. It’s the kind of soup you make on a chilly day when you want something warm, simple, and satisfying — but a little lighter. Every spoonful feels familiar, but with a fresh twist that keeps you coming back for seconds.

Make this, and let Mama Miche make your kitchen magic. MMMK, let's eat!
