I love creating and experimenting in the kitchen, and luckily, my husband is a very willing taste tester. This recipe was one of the more successful experiments!
One night, I was craving spinach and artichoke dip, but didn't have any cream cheese in the house and my husband was begging for something a bit more filling and substantial than dip.
A lightbulb came on and I whipped up a soup version of my favorite dip. I make mine in the crockpot (we are deeply in love, my crockpot and I), but cooking it on the stovetop is just as do-able.

How to Make Spinach and Artichoke Soup

Step-by-Step

Cut up the chicken into small pieces, cook in a little oil in a frying pan with the onions and garlic. Transfer to a pot and add the spinach, artichoke hearts (cut into smaller chunks), cream of chicken, seasonings and 1/2 cup of the milk. I didn't drain the spinach, and just used the liquid from that instead of adding water.
Simmer for about 10 minutes until heated through.
Add the cheese and the rest of the milk. Stir slowly and simmer until cheese is melted and fully incorporated in the soup. Serve with crusty, toasted bread.
Note: I use homemade cream of chicken soup, so the liquid amounts differ. Just add milk/cream/water to reach your desired consistency.
