- In a large pot over medium heat, combine the butter or margarine and the onions.
- Saute for about 3 minutes.
- Add flour and stir well until mixed.
- Add broth, raise heat to high and bring to a boil.
- Whisk mixture to keep flour from clumping.
- Add milk, reduce heat to medium and simmer for about 5 minutes.
- Add the blue cheese and stir until blended, then add the spinach and cook 3 more minutes.
- Add the cream, bring just to a boil, turn off heat and stir well.
- Add salt and cayenne pepper to taste.
- Allow to cool and puree in a food processor or blender a little at a time.
- Ladle into individual bowls and sprinkle with the bacon.
- Note: to serve cold, omit the bacon and add a little freshly squeezed lemon juice.
