- ¼ cup butter

- 1 (8 ounce) package sliced mushrooms
- ½ cup dry sherry
- 1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
- 1 quart milk
- 2 bunches fresh spinach, cleaned and chopped
- 4 green onions, chopped
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- salt and pepper to taste

Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour, and cook until the mixture turns a darker yellow color, about 5 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms, and cook for 2 minutes.
