CREAMY SWEET POTATO AND VEGGIE SOUP
I tasted a delicious soup in a restaurant but couldn't persuade the chef to share the recipe, so I began to experiment on my own. Finally, I came up with this blend, which is very close to what I tasted-maybe even better! -Audrey Nemeth, Mount Vernon, Maine

CREAM OF BROCCOLI, SWEET POTATO, AND ZUCCHINI SOUP
This is a lovely creamed soup, thick with veggies and flavor. It is something to serve company with a loaf of homemade bread and a salad. A country inn near us serves a soup similar to this, and has for years attracted people with it. This is the closest to it that I can get. Sometimes I think that this is better. I think the unique flavor is the cumin. It is delicious.

Steps:
- Note before you start; the basil, tarragon, and cumin are added to taste--keep tasing till you get it the way you want it.
- Break up the broccoli into flowerettes and simmer alone in another pan; set aside.
- Cover the bottom of a large pot with butter and saute onions till golden, but not brown.
- Add the sweet potato and zucchini.
- Stir till veggies are hot and then cover with the chicken stock.
- Put a colander down into the pot of liquid so that the liquid is up through the holes.
- Measure the stock because this determines how much Creamora to put in (1 teaspoon of Creamora to 1 cup of liquid) and with a whisk, whisk in the Cremora.
- Add the celery seed, nutmeg, basil, tarragon, cumin, salt and pepper.
- Bring to a boil.
- Add the Potato Buds to the colander whisking all the time till it is thick.
- Then gently take out the colaner and stir. You can use more or less depending on the thickness that you like.
- Add the cream for extra richness (or a small can of evaporated milk would also do).
- Then add the broccoli using as much as you like.
- Do not boil this soup.

SARASOTA'S BROCCOLI, ZUCCHINI AND POTATO SOUP
A few things to chop, but well worth the taste. Fresh flavors, rich, but no cream. Herbs and fresh vegetables give this all it needs. The cheese and potatoes gives it a little creamy texture and then I love to finish it topped with a roasted tomato in bread crumbs. It just seems to make it perfect. A nice slice of fresh bread, any kind you have. Some good bread sticks would be wonderful. Now I like to make my own, but honestly I don't always have time. A nice short cut ... Pillsbury bread sticks, but make a mix of melted butter, garlic, dried Italian seasoning and brush after you twist them up. Then sprinkle on Parmesan cheese. If you bake these on parchment paper or foil sprayed with Pam ... no clean up. They are easy quick and simple.

Steps:
- The Start -- In a large pot, add the olive oil and heat to medium. Add the onion, garlic and leeks and cook until slightly soft, just 3-4 minutes.
- Veggies -- Add the potatoes, zucchini and broccoli and cook just 1-2 minutes and then add the broth. Add the bay leaf and cook until the vegetables are soft. About 20 minutes. Don't forget to keep that cup of broccoli and potato to finish off the soup.
- Puree -- Now I like to use my immersion blender, but you can also use a regular blender. You want to blend the soup until the mix is well pureed. Mix until you get a creamy and a smooth texture.
- NOTE: Remove the bay leaf before you puree.
- Add the remaining broccoli and potatoes and cook another 10 minutes until they get soft.
- Finishing -- Once the final broccoli and potatoes are soft add the herbs, and any seasoning like the salt and pepper along with the cheese and just heat up. This isn't a thick chowder but a nice creamy soup. It is really good and light with tons of flavor.
- NOTE: If you like it thicker, you can mix a little corn starch with some water to make a slurry and then add to the soup (just 1 tablespoon of each) and bring the soup to medium boil and it will thicken. For me -- I don't think it needs any thickening. But you can add that if you want.
- My touch -- I love to serve this with a tomato I just roasted in the oven topped with olive oil and bread crumbs. Simply on a piece of foil. 10 minutes as the soup was finishing up. It is just the perfect finish. I used just a light drizzle of olive oil and then dredged in Italian dried bread crumbs. Roast at 425F for 10 minutes is all.
- Drizzle a little olive oil as a garnish.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, high-quality vegetables. This will ensure that your soup is packed with flavor and nutrients.
- Don't be afraid to add your own seasonings and spices. This soup is a great canvas for experimentation, so feel free to add your favorite herbs, spices, or even a bit of heat.
- If you want a thicker soup, you can add a cornstarch slurry or a few tablespoons of mashed potatoes.
- For a creamy soup, use an immersion blender or regular blender to puree the soup until smooth.
- Serve the soup with a variety of toppings, such as croutons, grated cheese, or a dollop of sour cream.
Conclusion:
This cream of broccoli, sweet potato, and zucchini soup is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make meal. It is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, and it is also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With its creamy texture and flavorful broth, this soup is sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a comforting and nutritious meal, give this soup a try!
