Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sauté the base

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

  2. 2

    Add the peppers

    Stir in the roasted red bell peppers and sauté for about 3 minutes until heated through.

  3. 3

    Combine the broth

    Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Incorporate the spinach

    Add the chopped spinach and let it simmer until wilted, about 3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Creamy finish

    Stir in the heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Simmer for another 5 minutes, allowing the soup to thicken slightly.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted. Serve hot, garnished with extra Parmesan if desired.
