I am searching for a recipe my aunt made last Thanksgiving. It consisted of spinach and potatoes in a soup. They were the only visible things in the soup, and the broth did not taste like chicken broth, though it has been a year since I had it. Anywho, it was incredible, and I can't stand spinach. My aunt is no longer talking to any of us (because of my uncle, ha ha), so I was wondering if anyone here had heard of a similar recipe? The potatoes were cut thick, if that helps any.

Thanks! biggrin.gif

That sounds like a great one! I don't think it is the one my aunt made, but I am now in contact with her and will check. I'll post it here when I get it.

Thanks so much, Shadows! Makes me hungry!
