Who doesn’t love soups? A good bowl of soup can be eaten on any occasion, any time of the day. However, soup really shines on a colder day and is reminiscent of cozy days inside.
This spinach mushroom soup is sure to be a favorite. Best of all, it only has simple ingredients, ones you probably already have at the back of your fridge. Spinach and mushrooms are both incredibly versatile and can be utilized in almost all types of dishes. In this soup, the subtle and slightly earthy flavor of the mushroom really sings.
Spinach also plays an integral part in this soup and helps create that beautiful green color. It’s considered a superfood and is rich in many vitamins, including iron, magnesium, and vitamin A. While it is low in calories, spinach boasts an impressive fiber content and lots of antioxidants linked to improving eye health and immune function.
The creaminess comes from the heavy cream, which makes this soup extra filling and hearty. The heavy cream also helps to thicken up the soup, making it satiating for the whole family.
This spinach and mushroom soup also freezes well. As you’ll want to keep coming back for more, we recommend doubling the batch so you can reheat it and get a hot bowl of soup whenever you want.
