I was drawn to this recipe because I'm a vegetarian and also because I had some plain yogurt I needed to use up. It's a nice soup, but perhaps a little on the bland side. Not sure what to kick it up with. Will probably make it again when I have the extra yogurt situation again.

It was very easy and tasted good. I omitted the onion. I added a couple dashes of lemon juice to the mix instead of garnishing with wedges. Next time I would omit the salt and set some cooked spinach aside so there could be some chunks in it. I love cooking with yogurt as opposed to heavy cream.

This was ok. I appreciated the ease of preparation and the unique creamy texture. I doctored up the recipe a bit by adding 2 cloves of garlic, increased amounts of herbs and spices, and some crushed red pepper. I also added a teaspoon of fresh lime juice and a touch of cream at the end. Topped with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese. Overall it was pretty good with all of these modifications. I served it with corn bread (it's what I had in the pantry), but I think it would be good with homemade parmesan croutons on top. My initial thought on the color was that it would be a fun starter course for a St. Patrick's Day meal. Also, I didn't like the tarragon in it. Maybe next time I will try a little fresh basil. I'm willing to try it again, but I don't think it will become a frequent dish at my house.

Ok. I thought this was a really weird line up of ingredients. Just so happens I had some plain yogurt and fresh spinach in the fridge that were about to get tossed so I figured why not try it. It turned out great. Really tasty! I added some garlic but other than that, made it exactly as the recipe calls. I will definatly be making it again!

If you can get past the somewhat nasty appearance of this dark green soup, it actually tastes pretty good. I used fresh spinach rather than frozen, and I substituted sour cream and some leftover cottage cheese for the yogurt. Topped it with a tablespoon of sour cream and some bacon bits. Not bad to go with a sandwich.

Great tasting and healthy! Super combination! Everyone thought this sounded awful! I followed the recipe exactly, with the exception of using fresh spinach instead of frozen! The results were fantastic! I will definitely make this again!

It was okay. My husband turned his nose up at the idea of me serving him spinach soup for dinner, but he actually went back for a second bowl... so I give it 4 stars. I ended up adding some egg noodles because it seemed a little plain all by itself.

This was pretty good for how quick and easy it is. I made it as the directions said, then when I served it I thought it needed a little oomph so I added some crushed red pepper flakes, It was yummy and had a little kick!

Light and delicious. Didn't bother to puree it as the frozen spinach was already chopped.

Absolutely delicious. And easy! I will be making it again. I made it with sandwiches instead of tomato soup. I like it better than the tomato that I had been making.
