1 small boiling potato, peeled, cut into 1/4-inch dice, and reserved in a bowl of water
1/4 pound green beans, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 ounces fresh spinach, coarse stems discarded and the leaves washed well, spun dry, and chopped fine (about 1 cup)

This soup was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would add more spices next time.

I thought this soup was really good! The shrimp was cooked perfectly and the vegetables were still a bit crunchy. I will definitely be making this again.

This soup was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. I probably won't make it again.

This soup was a disaster! The shrimp was overcooked and the vegetables were mushy. I will not be making this again.
