Spinach Corn Soup with Ginger Broth
Light and simple soups are great for summer. Even though it’s hot outside this spinach and corn soup is light and tastes great now and the rest of the year. My kids like to hunt down the corn and eat that first and though they don’t love spinach in every meal they actually like it a-ok in the soup.
My husband likes this too after a long day of work and although it’s not the flashiest dish I’ve ever made it is so easy to make and makes my family happy. Our family likes ginger so we throw a good amount in to give a good ginger taste in every spoonful. Hope you will enjoy this easy spinach corn soup with ginger broth recipe
