Ingredients


Preparation

1. To prepare, chop the half onion. Measure the milk and chicken broth and heat together on the stove or in the microwave. If you wish, you may use just milk or just chicken broth.

2. Put the frozen spinach in a pot, cover, and allow to thaw completely. Alternately, you may microwave it.

3. Melt the butter over medium-high heat in a pot large enough to hold all ingredients in this recipe. Add the onion and sautee until translucent.

4. Sprinkle flour into butter and stir. Add 1/4 cup of the broth/milk liquid and whisk or stir in until smooth. Repeat 1/4 cup at a time until all of the liquid is incorporated, reheating each time you add liquid. Once you have added all of the liquid, allow to simmer for a couple of minutes.

5. Add the spinach to the liquid. Heat through, then season to taste.

6. Blend the soup with a hand blender or in a blender. Return to the pot and reheat. Taste and season again if necessary.

This soup is great as-is or garnished with anything your heart desires, such as gorgonzola, yogurt, herbs, or chutney.

I enjoyed this, but I used coconut milk, and added fresh crab legs. It was divine.

my baby was sick and she wanted comfort food, oddly she chose creamy spinach soup... she loved it. I used fresh spinach and then used a blender stick to finish it.

I loved this recipe and so did 17 year old son. He raved about the smoothness of this recipe and I loved the taste and texture. Even the color was cheerful. The flavors blended together so well. Next time I would add some crusty bread with it. The first time my son and I just ate it right from the bowl, with nothing else.

This soup was excellent, and it isn't just for winter! We ate it with Garden Vegetable Wraps (161749) after coming back from the pool and it was very satisfying. I will definitely make this again.

Tasty, but simple in flavor. Great with crusty bread.

Amazing, one of the best soup I ever had, quite easy to prepare (I am a beginner in cooking), I could not expect a better result.

Mmm... this soup is delicious! I made it with all milk (no chicken broth) and added a little bit of cream. What a great way to eat your vegetables! I will be making this over and over again.
