Leek and Chestnut Soup

"I haven't tried this yet, but I plan to this week. It is from the Ciao Chow Linda blog at http://ciaochowlinda.blogspot.com. The original recipe didn't say how many servings this makes, so I guessed. It also called for heavy cream. I left this out, but feel free to add it during the reheating that occurs after the puree process."

If the comments say My kids loved it! then I will probably think it's bland or otherwise yucky... so I don't make recipes that have a lot of My kids loved it! comments.
