5-6 carrots , chopped cone #3

5-6 yukon gold potatoes, chopped cone #3

Instructions

Cook the wild rice according to the directions on the package.

Heat  the 7qt pan with coconut oil on medium.

Add leeks and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally so they don't brown.

Add garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Add carrots, potatoes, squash, and vegetable broth and stir.

Add 3 bay leaves on top and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until vegetables can be easily pierced with a fork.

Remove bay leaves.

Blend soup with vitamix carefully remove about 1/2 -2/3rds of soup and blend until desired consistency (I like there to still be some chunks of veggies in it).

Drain rice when done cooking and add to soup.
