I'm not really a soup kind of girl but when I tried this one I absolutely loved it!! It is seriously easy and doesn't take very long at all to make...
Ingredients:
- 5 cups of chicken stock
- 750 grams of potatoes (peeled & chopped)
- 3/4 of a cup of light cream cheese or sour cream (whichever is in your fridge)
- 1/2 - 1 bunch of spinach (the more spinach, the stronger the taste)
- 1/3 of a cup of parmesan cheese
Process:
STEP 1:
Place the chicken stock & potatoes in a large saucepan. Bring the stock to the boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
STEP 2:
Meanwhile wash the spinach, remove stalks and shred the leaves roughly.
STEP 3:
Add the spinach to the saucepan and simmer for 3 more minutes.
STEP 4:
Add the cream cheese/sour cream and parmesan cheese to the saucepan. Stir the mixture thoroughly.
STEP 5:
Remove from the heat and blend using a soup blending tool of your choice.

Review of Recipe:
The soup will be ready to eat straight away. It freezes well and can be reheated on the stove using a small saucepan. I serve it with thick slices of bread and butter and it is absolutely delicious. A tip I give is to get all your ingredients out on your bench and measured so that you don't stress out. If you find you simmer the soup a bit longer than the times above don't worry as this recipe is hard to mess up :) The soup doesn't exactly look appetising but it tastes soooo good!
Let me know if you have any questions about this recipe and definitely let me know if you end up making it! As always I'd love any suggestions for recipes to try so let me know!
