FRESH AND HEALTHY SPINACH SOUP

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, heat the oil. Sauté the potato, onion, celery, and garlic for 5 minutes.
• Add the chicken broth and fat-free milk. Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer on low for 10 minutes.
• Stir in half of the spinach, cover, and simmer for 10 more minutes.
• Cool slightly, then transfer the soup to a blender. Work in 2 batches if necessary to keep the hot soup from overflowing the blender as you blend. Alternatively, an immersion blender can be used to blend the soup in the pot. Add the remaining fresh spinach to the soup and blend until smooth.
• Taste for seasoning and serve.

• 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.
