.SK 1
Rinse and chop the spinach.
Place the chopped spinach in a heavy skillet, cover, and steam
until wilted, stirring occasionally.
There is no need to add water other than what clings to the
leaves from washing.
(If you are using frozen spinach, place over low or medium heat
to thaw and allow excess water to evaporate)
Transfer to small bowl and squeeze completely dry.
.SK 2
Grind bacon and onion very fine and place in saucepan.
Saut\z\(aae bacon and onion until bacon is cooked.
.SK 3
Stir in flour to make smooth paste. Gradually add milk. Bring to
boil and simmer 10 minutes over low heat until thickened.
.SK 4
Add salt and pepper.
Grind spinach fine and add to cream sauce.
.NX
You may find that you want to add extra milk and give the 
finished soup a final heating in the microwave. We did, and it
didn't hurt it one bit.

10 minutes preparation, 15 minutes cooking.
