Quantity Ingredient
2 cups Chicken broth
2 cups Water
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 Clove minced garlic
10 ounces Fresh spinach
4 slices Country French or Tuscan bread
2 tablespoons Of either green olive paste, pesto or sundried tomato pu
2 cups Bite-sized chunks of skinned cooked roasted chicken

Directions

Over high heat, bring chicken broth and water, mustard, and garlic to a simmer. As this is coming to a boil, de-rib and wash the spinach, then tear the leaves into 2-inch pieces. Lightly toast 4 slices of French or Italian bread. When toasted, spread with sundried tomato, pesto or green olive paste.

When the soup is at a simmer, add the chicken and simmer, uncovered for 2 minutes just to warm through. Then add the spinach leaves, and cook for a few seconds or until the leaves just wilt. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Set 2 slices of toasted bread in the bottom of each soup bowl. Remove the soup from the heat, season to taste with salt and pepper and ladle it over the bread.
