Provided by Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup long-grain white rice
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
6 cups canned vegetable broth, or homemade
2 cups chopped fresh spinach leaves
1/3 cup grated Parmesan
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place rice in a shallow baking pan and toast, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • In a large soup pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring frequently, until golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, salt, nutmeg, cayenne, vegetable broth, and rice and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender, about 12 minutes.
  • Stir in spinach, Parmesan cheese, and lemon zest, simmer until spinach is wilted, about 3 minutes longer, and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh spinach: Fresh spinach has a more vibrant flavor and color than frozen spinach. If you're using frozen spinach, be sure to thaw it completely before adding it to the soup.
  • Don't overcook the spinach: Spinach cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become wilted and slimy.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: In addition to spinach, you can add other vegetables to this soup, such as carrots, celery, onion, and zucchini. This will make the soup more nutritious and flavorful.
  • Use a flavorful broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a flavorful broth. You can use chicken broth, vegetable broth, or even a combination of the two.
  • Season the soup to taste: Be sure to season the soup to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Spinach and rice soup is a hearty, healthy, and delicious soup that's perfect for a cold winter day. It's also a great way to use up leftover spinach. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this soup is sure to become a family favorite.
