Spinach, Lemon and Turmeric Soup











I've received an abundance of wonderful spinach through my CSA. While it's wonderful I was worried about using it all before it went bad. This recipe is a great way to use a large amount of spinach.







I sauteed 2 onions then wilted 2 lbs. of spinach added the zest and juice of a lemon, a tablespoon of turmeric (which turns the soup an amazing shade of yellow), salt and pepper to taste, 5 cups of stock then let the soup simmer for about half an hour. Next, I pureed the whole thing with my immersion blender (letting the soup cool and using a food processor or blender would work just as wellI). I added a dollop of plain yogurt to top it off and dinner was served.

Seved with a slice of crusty bread, it was a perfect light meal.
