POTATO SPINACH CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 2 quart casserole dish.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash.
• In a large bowl combine mashed potatoes, spinach, sour cream, butter, green onions, salt and pepper. Spoon into prepared dish.

SPINACH POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the potatoes, water, onion and bouillon; bring to a boil. Cook until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Cook until spinach is wilted and mixture is heated through.

HAM, POTATO, CORN AND SPINACH CHOWDER

Steps:

• melt about 1 tablespoon of butter in a pan (real butter is sooo much better than margarine, trust me on this).
• add in about a teaspoon of onion flakes to rehydrate and soften.
• when the butter gets a bit brown add 2 tablespoons of flour.
• whisk together until you have "cooked" the flour (about 30 seconds).
• add 2 cups of milk and whisk until smooth.
• add a cup of chicken broth. I actually used chicken bouillon because that is what I had.
• add one heaping tablespoon of greek sour cream (see notes about using regular sour cream instead).
• Add 2 nuggets of chopped frozen spinach.
• let simmer on low while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
• add a couple shakes of garlic powder.
• I put in A LOT of black pepper but do it to your taste.
• Add dill to taste as well, I used dry because that is what I had, but fresh would be super good.
• Chop up about 2 cups of ham into bite sized pieces.
• open the corn and drain.
• peel one big left over baked potato and chop into bite sized pieces.
• Add all the ham, potato and corn.
• Taste and add extra dill, pepper if desired. I added another tablespoon of sour cream because I thought it would taste good.
• Let simmer until all the ingredients are hot and the spinach is dispersed throughout.
• and eat!

CHEESY ITALIAN SAUSAGE POTATO CHOWDER

Steps:

• In a pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
• When hot, add the onions. Saute until translucent and add the Italian sausage. Break apart the sausage with a spoon and stir occasionally. When the sausage is brown remove from heat.
• In a soup pan, combine the potatoes, chicken stock, and celery. Over medium-high heat, bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
• Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cooked sausage and onions to the soup pot. Add the cream and cheddar cheese, stirring until all ingredients are combined and warm again. Serve with additional cheddar cheese and green onions sprinkled on top.
