Spinach soup is what happens when you have a bag of greens, a few potatoes, and forty minutes. It tastes like you fussed, and you didn't.
Cooks on Pepper reach for these on the nights the fridge is thin and everybody's hungry at different times — soup holds on the stove and reheats fine the next day.
Every recipe here leans on things you keep around: Sausage, Potato, Spinach Soup for a hearty bowl, Creamy Spinach Artichoke Soup when you want it rich, Easy chicken and spinach tortellini soup for the kids, plus Potato Chickpea Spinach Soup, Old-Fashioned Spinach Soup, and Bread Bowls with Creamy Spinach Soup.
Quick Tips
- 1
Brown the sausage first
Cook the sausage meat 6 to 8 minutes until there are dark bits on the bottom of the pot, then build the soup on top of them.
- 2
Add spinach last
Stir the spinach in during the final 2 to 3 minutes so it wilts but stays green instead of turning gray and stringy.
- 3
Simmer potatoes until tender
Cut potatoes into 1/2-inch pieces and simmer 12 to 15 minutes, until a fork slides in with no resistance.
- 4
Temper the cream
Lower the heat and stir cream or half-and-half in off a hard boil so it doesn't curdle, then warm 2 minutes more.
