STEP 4 Add spinach and Campbells Real Stock then bring to the boil. Cook for 5 minutes or until the spinach has wilted and cooked.
STEP 5 Using a stick blender, blend the soup into a puree then add the cream. Bring soup back to a simmer and season to taste. Serve topped with crispy prosciutto and breadcrumbs.
