Lisa's Notes:

We love spinach in my house. So when I found an easy recipe for spinach soup, I knew I had to put a twist on it. My kids call me the soup nazi because iv musta made over a hundred different soups, but in my house we love hearty, especially if soup in going to be the main course.
Being green is a special bonus because st. patricks day is a big green feast here. We celebrate with lots of green food and drinks, after all its my bday and i live in an irish neighborhood which has parade go right past my house and has be going on for close to 100 years now.

Directions

In lg pot saute onions s&p and garlic on med for five min. Add chopped potatoes and continue to cook for 3-5min.

Pour in chicken stock and simmer for 15 min. Add spinach and continue to cook on a low to med heat for another 10 min.

meanwhile prepare 4-5 grilled cheese sandwiches useing mozzerella. Place sandwiches on baking sheet butter both sides of bread sprinkle with garlic powder and toast at 350 for 8-10min.
Cool and cut into crouton size.

Puree soup in batches leaving partially chunky.
Serve in bowl with a pinch of nutmeg topped with croutons.
