Super Spinach Soup
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary, or 1 teaspoon dried
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground pepper, to taste
- 2 cups diced Yukon or Idaho potatoes
- 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth, chicken broth, or water
- 1 can light coconut milk
- 6 cups fresh spinach or 3 cups freeze-dried
- a pinch of nutmeg
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, rosemary, pepper; sprinkle with the salt, reduce heat to medium-low and cook, partially covered for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft.
Stir in potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes. Pour in broth or water and bring to a simmer over medium heat, cover and cook until the potatoes are soft, about 15 minutes.
Stir in spinach and simmer until the greens are wilted and tender, about 5 minutes or so.
Puree the soup with an immersion blender, or in a regular blender until it is your desired consistency. I like it totally smooth and creamy but you can leave it a little chunky if you want. Add salt to taste.
Serve the soup garnished with a pinch of nutmeg and a small spritz of lemon juice for extra flavor if desired. I like the acid with the flavors of the soup. I really think it takes it up a notch.
