Roasted Garlic, Potato & Vegetable Soup

I checked through Recipezaar and couldn't find any like this one that I threw together for lunch today. The secret is the roasted garlic (there are many recipes for roasting garlic here on Recipezaar I used Mean Chefs') - I just did 15 heads and froze them and they are wonderful. The potatoes I used are wee little runts from the garden only about 1/2" across but any potato will do peeled & diced.

Wonderful soup! I really needed something to use up some roasted garlic and this was perfect. It's quite a thick soup but I love that, perfect for dipping chunks of bread into. The only thing I was confused about was whether the soup was meant to be puréed or not. It doesn't say that in the directions, but the picture makes it look like a smooth soup. I decided to use a hand blender on it.Reply
