Artichoke Florentine Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Vegetables

   In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

2. 2

   Add Spinach and Artichokes

   Stir in the spinach and artichoke hearts, cooking until the spinach is wilted (if using fresh) or heated through (if using frozen), about 3-4 minutes.

3. 3

   Add Broth and Seasonings

   Pour in the vegetable broth and add salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes.

4. 4

   Blend the Soup

   Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend only half of the soup.

5. 5

   Stir in Cream and Cheese

   Return the pot to low heat and stir in the heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese, allowing it to warm through without boiling, about 5 minutes.

6. 6

   Serve

   Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot with additional Parmesan cheese on top, if desired.
