This easy recipe combines frozen spinach, lean bacon, and a hint of nutmeg, achieving a creamy texture thanks to skim milk and blending.

You can substitute the bacon with ham or omit it entirely for a vegetarian version (use vegetable broth). Add a dollop of sour cream when serving if you prefer extra creaminess. This soup is excellent as a starter or main course with a side salad.
