Ingredients:

  • 16 oz frozen chopped spinach
  • 8 oz no-salt-added diced tomatoes
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 cups beef or vegetable broth
  • 3 tbsp artificial sweetener (optional)

  • 1 1/2 tsp dried basil leaves
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium saucepan, combine the frozen chopped spinach, diced tomatoes, red wine vinegar, garlic powder, broth, artificial sweetener (if using), sugar, basil leaves, bay leaf, black pepper, and oregano leaves.

  2. Bring to a Boil: Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
