Yellow Broth

The main ingredient is steel cut oats. I love steel cut oats. Apparently it is a traditional Irish soup. It was actually more yellow than I thought it would be. I'm still torn on whether I even liked this? Or, if I would make it again? And if I do, what will I do differently? But I ate it. Quickly. And enjoyed it thoroughly. It is thicker than most soups I make because of the oatmeal. I put in too much salt, but that might've made it even more delicious.

2 t butter
2 oz each - onion, celery, carrots
2 t flour
1 c water + veg broth powder to make veg broth (I used too much)
1 T steel cut oats
1/2 c spinach, chopped.

Heath the vegetables (except spinach) in butter until soft, add flour, cook for a minute, add broth and oats, bring to boil then lower heat and cook on low for about 15 or 20 minutes, add spinach and cook until spinach is desired texture.
