• 2 large carrots, chopped
• 2 - 4 potatoes, chopped

Instructions:

1. Heat the oil in a large soup pot. Add onions, celery and leeks. Cook over high heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. 
2. Add remaining ingredients. 
3. Bring to boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 20 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
4. Remove bay leaves.
5. If you wish, use an immersion blender to mash up the veggies.
