Creamy Spinach Potato Soup Ingredients:

This creamy soup is made with fresh spinach, Yukon gold potatoes, broth, onion, garlic, heavy cream, and the optional cheddar cheese. It's very easy to make and inexpensive.

This recipe is very customizable. It is possible to make this creamy spinach soup totally dairy-free or WFPB compliance. The soup tastes good with or without heavy cream or cheese.

Spinach as a Healthy Soup Ingredient:

In this recipe, I used fresh baby spinach leaves. However, frozen spinach can also be used as an alternative. This dark leafy green is important for your skin, hair, and bone health. It also provides protein, iron, vitamins, and minerals.

Which Potato to Use in Creamy Soups:

I highly recommend using Yukon potatoes for this recipe. Other potatoes like Russet and red potatoes can also be used. Yukon gold potatoes are slightly sweet with a smooth and slightly waxy texture. They are incredibly versatile and inexpensive.

Yukon potatoes are great for roasting, baking, mashing, soups, and chowders.

Heavy Cream or Alternatives:

I added the heavy cream to thicken the soup, and to add a rich, milky flavor. As I mentioned above, this soup tastes delicious with or without heavy cream.

Other dairy options like crème frâiche, half n half or sour cream can also be used as a replacement ingredient. Alternatively, you can replace the heavy cream with a combination of milk and cornstarch. For example, replace 1 cup of heavy cream with a cup of milk and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch.
