Cream of Zucchini Soup image

Vegetarian zucchini soup with Gorgonzola. You can use real cream, but I use a vegan mimic cream to keep the calories down, the Gorgonzola adds enough richness that I don't think it's needed.

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon vegan margarine
1 onion, chopped
2 pounds zucchini, sliced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
salt and pepper to taste
2 ½ teaspoons vegetable bouillon powder
2 ½ cups water
6 ounces crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
1 cup non-dairy creamer (such as MimicCreme®)

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil and margarine together in a large pot; cook and stir the onion in the hot oil and margarine until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the zucchini and season with the oregano, salt, and pepper; continue cooking and stirring until the zucchini is tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Pour the water into the pot, and stir in the bouillon powder. Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer another 10 minutes. Add the Gorgonzola cheese and allow it to melt into the soup.
  • Pour the soup into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Secure the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth and pour into a clean pot. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup in the cooking pot. Stir the creamer through the soup before serving hot.

This soup is a great way to use up summer squash. I often make it when I have a lot of summer squash from my garden.

I froze some of this soup for later and it turned out great. It was just as creamy and flavorful after being frozen and reheated.

I served this soup with a side of crusty bread and it was the perfect meal. The bread helped to soak up the creamy soup.

I added a pinch of cayenne pepper to this soup and it gave it a nice spicy kick. I would definitely recommend adding some cayenne pepper if you like spicy food.

I used chicken broth instead of vegetable broth and it turned out great. The soup was still very flavorful and creamy.

I'm not usually a fan of zucchini, but this soup was surprisingly good. The creaminess of the soup balanced out the zucchini flavor perfectly. I would definitely make this again.
