Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 cups Fresh spinach
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 3 Garlic cloves
- 4 cups Vegetable broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 0.25 teaspoons Nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Wash the spinach thoroughly and set it aside to drain.
Dice the onion finely and mince the garlic cloves.
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant. Remove from heat.
In the crock pot, combine the sautéed onion and garlic, spinach, vegetable broth, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 4 hours, stirring once halfway through to ensure the spinach is evenly cooked.
After 4 hours, stir in the cream cheese and heavy cream. Use an immersion blender directly in the crock pot to blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the mixture in batches to a blender, blend until smooth and creamy, and return to the crock pot.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed by adding more salt or pepper.
Let the soup sit on the warm setting for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve hot with a garnish of additional nutmeg or a swirl of cream if desired, and enjoy!
