Cooking

  1. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

    Add Spinach

    Once the potatoes are tender, add the spinach to the pot. Stir and cook for an additional 5 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
