Subject: RECIPE: Creamy Spinach Soup

This is a recipe from Mary McDougall in the May Vegetarian
Times.

CREAMY SPINACH SOUP

1 large onion, chopped
6 cups water
3 potatoes, peeled and chopped
3 zucchini, thickly sliced
2 cups tightly packed fresh spinach leaves
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/3 cup trimmed enoki mushrooms (optional)

Cook onion in a large pot with 1/2 cup of the water until onions are
softened.  Add potatoes, zucchini, and remaining 5.5 cups of water.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer covered for 35 minutes.  Add
spinach and pepper and cook for another 2 minutes.  Remove from heat,
puree, and return to flame for 5 minutes. Add mushrooms if desired and
serve hot.

Serves 4-6 

Ok.  My opinion: I recommend starting with
4 cups water and adding another cup if needed.  Also, I think some
garlic would awaken the flavor of this soup.
