My daughter and I were trying to think up a healthy recipe with the vegetables we had on hand. That is how we came up with this zucchini soup recipe. It was so delicious that I had to write down what we did so that I could do it again another day. I figured if I published the recipe here, I could come back and view it anytime I got the urge to make it again.
You will need the following ingredients to make this zucchini soup:
- 1 Tbsp. of extra virgin olive oil
- 1 small onion chopped
- 2 cloves of garlic chopped
- 1 zucchini chopped into thin slices
- 1 yellow squash chopped into thin slices
- 10 small broccoli florets
- 30 oz. vegetable stock
- ¼ tsp. basil
- ¼ tsp. thyme
- ¼ tsp. rosemary
Follow these steps to make the zucchini soup:
Step 1:
Heat up the extra virgin olive oil in a large pot.
Step 2:
Add the onions and garlic, and cook until the onions begin to become translucent.
Step 3:
Add the zucchini, squash, broccoli florets, and the vegetable stock to the ingredients in the pot. Stir and watch for the ingredients to begin to boil. Turn the heat down to medium and cook for 10 minutes.
Step 4:
Pour the soup into a blender in batches. Puree the ingredients and then return them to the pot.
Step 5:
Add the basil, thyme, and rosemary to the soup. Stir and cook another three minutes.
Step 6:
Pour into individual serving bowls and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Serve with crackers or French bread.
