Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a large heavy pot, heat olive oil to medium-high, and cook onion, celery, red bell pepper and garlic until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Whisk in the flour and gradually add the broth, whisking until soup is blended.
  3. Add the yams and bring to a boil, cover and reduce the heat to low, or a slow simmer. Cook approximately 20 minutes or until the potatoes are very tender.
  4. Add the spinach, milk, green onions, salt and pepper (I didn't measure, but guesstimate that I used between 1/2 and 3/4 teaspoons salt).
  5. Turn the heat back up to medium. Cook until spinach is wilted and soup well heated and thickened, about 5 minutes.
  6. Hope you enjoy!
