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.

CREAMY SPINACH SOUP

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large lidded saucepan, add the onion and garlic and fry gently for 5-6 minutes until softening. Stir in the potato and continue to cook gently for 1 minute. Pour in the stock and simmer for 8-10 minutes until the potato starts to cook. Pour in the milk and bring up to a simmer, then stir in half the spinach and the lemon zest. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes until the spinach has completely wilted down. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes.

(The soup may now be frozen for up to 1 month. Defrost in the microwave or overnight in the fridge. The soup may lose some of its vibrancy on freezing, but the flavour won't be impaired.) Return to the pan and reheat. Taste and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. You may like to dilute the soup with a little extra stock if too thick. Ladle the soup into bowls and swirl in the cream
