Spinach Soup Deux



I just found out a few days ago that it was National Soup month. I had no idea, but now that I do I would have eat soup all month long. But then again...by now I would have probably gotten tired of soup. But I don't think that would happen with me. At least, I hope not. This one's a simple spinach soup. I made one before several months ago. It's really east to put together and only takes minutes. It's so easy anyone can do it. Really. Plus, the ginger in this helps especially if you've got a cold or sore throat or anything related.

 Serve 2



Spinach Soup Deux

1 12oz can vegetable stock
1 small onion  - chopped
2 Tbsp ginger - chopped
extra virgin olive oil
1 garlic clove - fine chopped
salt and pepper to taste


In a small pot, saute the garlic and onions in a tiny drizzle of olive oil on medium to low heat. When the onions are slightly limp add the ginger. Then the stock. Add the spinach and cover to let the spinach wilt. Once wilted stir occasionally for 2-3 minutes.

Serve warm.

  1. Ginger and garlic make everything taste so good! National Soup Month is going to be extended until the snow melts here, so thanks for the additional recipe.

  5. I didn't know it was soup month either! I actually unwittingly ate a lot of soup in January though. Must have been the chilly SoCal weather! ;)

  8. I made soup yesterday, too! It is definitely soup day.
    your soup looks very clean and detoxing, even. But it also looks a bit like it's got miso in it!
