Ingredients:

Serving

3 tbsp butter
2 leeks, thinly sliced (white and light green parts only )
1 onion, thinly sliced
4 cups rutabagas, peeled and diced
1 carrot, peeled and diced
1 russet potato, peeled and diced
3/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
4 cups chicken stock
2 cups water
1 cup 10% cream or 1 cup 2% low-fat milk
1 tsp cider vinegar
1/3 cup blue cheese, crumbled
2 tbsp fresh chives or 2 tbsp parsley, finely chopped

Directions:

In large pot melt butter over medium heat; fry leeks and onion, stirring often, until translucent, about 12 minutes.
Add rutabaga, carrot, potato, salt, pepper and nutmeg; cook for 5 minutes.
Stir in stock and water; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes.
In batches, puree soup in blender until smooth, or use hand blender directly in the pot.
Return to pot. Stir in cream/milk and vinegar; bring just to boil over medium heat.
Ladle into bowls. Garnish with cheese and chives.
