I’ve really been into making soups lately and decided I wanted to try my hand at a spinach soup. I am not sure I’ve even eaten spinach soup before, but I figured I would give it a try! When I was scoping out recipes I found a lot that used heavy cream and while I knew that would make it taste good, one recipe stood out from the rest. There was no cream and there was the addition of dry sherry. The best part was I checked into the recipe I noticed it was written by Tami Hardemen, Running with Tweezers, who taught our Food Styling session at Mixed. I knew I had to give it a try! This soup was even more special in that it was cooked in my new Le Creuset dutch oven. Santa was good to me this year and I got a few pieces, but oh how I love my dutch oven baby so much. The only pictures I took were on Instagram, silly me should have taken some good ones of the christening!

I was very pleased with the taste of this soup. The sherry added a nice tone to it and it wasn’t heavy like a cream soup. The potato did a nice job thickening it. My daughter really enjoyed the soup as well! This is a great, comforting way to be good this new year!
