 Directions

In a 3-quart saucepan, saute the onion in the butter until the onion is
translucent (about 3 minutes).

Add water, potatoes, spinach and salt. Cook until potatoes are tender

a simmer. Add milk and Worcestershire sauce. Reheat to near boiling, but do
not boil. Stir in grated cheese. Serve immediately.

NOTES:

* A rich cream-style potato and spinach soup for a cold, winter day
This recipe is adapted from one that the U.S. Department of Agriculture
used to distribute to potato growers in the 1930s. It is rich and thick,
almost a meal in itself, and is very easy to make.
