Mediterranean Spinach and Potato Soup image

Created for RSC #6. I've always been a big fan of spinach (thank you Popeye). I also love potato soup (thank you school lunches). Thanks to Susie D for putting both ingredients in the contest list so I could combine the two.

I love how easy this soup is to make. I was able to throw it all in the pot and let it simmer while I did other things. It was perfect for a busy weeknight meal.
