Easy Spinach Soup

• 1 Tablespoon Cooking Oil
• 1 cup Yellow Onion, Chopped
• 1 clove Garlic, Minced
• 1 cup Carrot, Chopped
• 3 cups Vegetable Or Chicken Stock
• 1 piece Bay Leaf
• 4 cups Fresh Spinach
• 1 pinch Salt
• 1 pinch Pepper

1. Place a medium pot over medium heat. Add in cooking oil. Once the oil shimmers, add the onion and turn heat to medium low. Stir onions consistently for about 3 minutes. Add garlic and stir for another 30 seconds. Add carrots to the mixture, and stir for about 2 minutes.
2. Slowly add stock to the pot, drop in bay leaf, stir and cover. Let cook for no more than 15 minutes.
3. Once the soup mixture is cooked (carrots should be tender), place half of the mixture in your blender. Add 2 cups of spinach. Blend until the soup is smooth. This makes enough soup for 2 bowls.
4. Repeat this process for two more bowls of soup.
