Spinach Bisque

By: Michelle Jones

½ cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup flour
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
2-1/2 cups of milk
1 cup water
¾ cup cubed cheese
1 pkg (10 oz) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained

In a 3-qt. saucepan, sauté onion in butter until tender. Stir in the flour, salt and nutmeg until smooth. Gradually whisk in milk and water. Add cheese; cook and stir over medium heat until melted. Add spinach; cover and simmer for 4-5 minutes or until heated through.

1-27: I didn’t put nutmeg in and I just chopped up fresh spinach and added more milk and 2 cooked potatoes.
