Excellent Soup! I have made this several times and it's great. I noticed different brands of spinach taste differently, some even fishy. what worked best was thawing the spinach over running water, squeezing excess water out and placing in soup right away. I have also used broccoli instead and it was good I did use an extra cup of cheese to make it cheesier.
