Looking for a recipe for Spinach Soup that is mainly milk, butter, spinach, salt and pepper. Anyone know one?

Question

My mother used to make it, she has passed away and no one remembers the recipe. I think that those ingredients are it, but just wanted to know if anyone knew of one similar and the amounts and cook details. It was awesome!

Answer 2

Spinach Soup

5 T. unsalted butter
1/4 lb. fresh mushrooms, washed, dried, trimmed and diced
1 green onion or scallion, chopped
5 T. flour
2 c. chicken broth
2 c. milk
1/2 tsp. salt
black pepper (preferably freshly ground)
ground nutmeg (optional - we used a dash)
1/4 lb. cream cheese, softened and cut into cubes
1 c. Swiss cheese (Jarlsberg, if possible)
3/4 lb. fresh spinach, washed, trimmed, cooked and chopped

Melt the butter in a large saucepan. In it, slowly sauté mushrooms and scallion until tender. Add flour and stir just until flour is cooked, a couple of minutes. Whisk in first chicken broth and then milk, stirring until thickened. Add salt, pepper, nutmeg if desired, cream cheese and Swiss cheese and stir until melted. Then stir in spinach. Heat and stir very gently. Season to taste. Serve hot. Makes 4-6 servings.
