This was pretty good.... I used 2 bags of baby spinach (so a total of 12 oz) and thought it was just right - and it made a lovely green soup!! I also cut back on the butter and used about 1/2 homemade chicken stock instead of all water. :) This was awesome with some sour cream on top and my hubby added some leftover shredded chicken in his. My kids even ate it! Thank you!!
