Garlic Soup With Spinach image

I made a lot of turkey stock after Thanksgiving and pulled some out for this spinach-packed, very quick and easy soup. A vegetarian version made simply with water and garlic is equally delicious.

Ingredients

1 1/2 quarts chicken stock, turkey stock, vegetable stock, or water
A bouquet garni made with a bay leaf and a couple of sprigs each thyme and parsley
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 to 3 large garlic cloves (to taste), minced
1/2 cup elbow macaroni
2 eggs
1 6-ounce bag baby spinach, or 12 ounces of bunch spinach, stemmed, washed, dried and coarsely chopped
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan (1 ounce)

Steps:

Place the stock or water in a large saucepan or soup pot with the bouquet garni. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper. Bring to a simmer and add the garlic. Cover and simmer 15 minutes. Add the pasta and simmer 5 minutes, until cooked al dente. Remove the bouquet garni.
Beat the eggs in a bowl and stir in 1/3 cup of stock, making sure that it is not boiling, and the cheese.
Stir the spinach into the simmering stock and simmer for 1 minute. Drizzle in the egg mixture, scraping all of it in with a rubber spatula. Turn off the heat and stir very slowly with the spatula, paddling it back and forth until the eggs have set. Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve at once.
