Steps:
- Heat the olive oil over medium high heat and add the grated onion and carrot, stir well and sauté for about 5 minutes.
- Pour in the 5 cups of chicken or vegetable broth, bring to a boil, then lower heat, partially cover with lid and let simmer about 10-15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a medium sized saucepan, melt the 4 tablespoons of butter. Add the flour and stir, while cooking over medium heat. If it starts to brown, the pot is too hot. Cook for about 3 minutes, then slowly add a little of the cup of milk.
- Stir well, then add 1/2 of the milk. Once this is incorporated, add the rest of the milk, stirring constantly. It is important to always stir this white sauce or it will become lumpy, or stick to the bottom. If it does become lumpy, you can always "cure" the problem by blending the sauce with a stick blender (shhh...don't tell anyone)!
- Next, add about a cup of the carrot, onion broth to this sauce and mix well; then add the entire pot of sauce to the simmering broth, while stirring well.
- Now it's time to add the spinach. Stir well and simmer for about 2 minutes, then remove from heat and add the milk/cream. Stir well and add salt and pepper to taste. That's it! Soup's done!
- If you'd like to add a nice finishing touch and bit of crunch, you can sauté the tablespoon of butter with about 1/2 cup of sliced almonds until they brown a little. Sprinkle a little on top of each serving in the bowl and enjoy.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a large stock pot over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrots and celery and sauté for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add garlic and crushed red pepper flakes and sauté for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add stock, diced tomatoes, Italian seasoning, and stir to combine. Continue cooking until the broth reaches a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low to maintain the simmer.
- Stir in the orzo until combined. Cover the pot with a lid and continue simmering the soup, stirring occasionally so that the orzo doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot, until the orzo is just barely al dente. (Try to avoid overcooking the orzo!)
- Stir the spinach into the soup. Taste and season with salt and black pepper, to taste.
- Serve immediately, garnished with your favorite toppings, and enjoy!

Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the spinach and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until the spinach is wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the mixture to a blender or food processor, pour in 1/4 cup hot water and pulse until pureed. Set aside.
- In a large soup pot, cook the onions in the butter over medium heat until the onions begin to soften. Sprinkle the flour over the top and stir to combine. Cook for about 2 minutes, then pour in the milk, stirring occasionally. Add the salt, cayenne and some black pepper and stir to combine. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Pour in the pureed spinach, then cook until thickened, another 3 to 5 minutes.
- Check the seasonings, adding more salt, black pepper or cayenne as needed. Serve warm.
CREAM OF SPINACH SOUP
Puréed vegetable soups can be lean and spare or rich and creamy, spicy or subtle, hot or cold. They can be vegetarian or quite meaty. And much of the cooking time is just for simmering. This spinach soup, with a touch of nutmeg and some cream, is a classic combination, and its flavor justifies that distinction.

Steps:
- Combine spinach, onions and stock in a saucepan, and turn heat to medium high. Bring to a boil, and lower heat so mixture barely bubbles. Cook, stirring occasionally, until spinach is very tender, about 10 minutes. Turn off heat, add nutmeg and a sprinkling of salt and pepper, and let cool at least a few minutes.
- Pour soup into a blender, in batches if necessary, and carefully purée. Return to pan, add cream, and, over medium-low heat, reheat gently, stirring occasionally. When soup is hot, adjust seasoning, and serve.
