CREAMY ZUCCHINI SOUP



Creamy Zucchini Soup image

You don't need loads of cream or even a roux to make a creamy zucchini soup. The natural texture of the zucchini flesh whizzes up beautifully to be a silky, creamy texture. It's well worth the extra few minutes to saute onions until golden for the extra flavour it adds. Topping the soup with a pinch of parmesan is a great finishing touch, otherwise try croutons, finely sliced basil or other herb.

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large potatoes, peeled and chopped
2 onions, peeled and chopped
3 cups chicken broth
1 chicken stock cube (for flavour)
5 -6 zucchini, chopped
3 -4 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 teaspoon Cavenders All Purpose Greek Seasoning
3 tablespoons extra-light cream cheese
salt and pepper, to taste (I find the Cavenders covers it)

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes and onions into a large saucepan with the chicken broth and chicken stock cube. Bring to a boil and simmer for 3 minutes.
  • Add the zucchini, garlic and Cavenders seasoning and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes.
  • Add the cream cheese and salt and pepper if using.
  • Blend in a food processor or with a handheld blender until smooth, reheat if necessary, and serve!

Tips:

  • Choose ripe zucchini: Using ripe zucchini ensures a sweet and flavorful soup. Look for zucchini that is firm, deep green in color, and free of blemishes.
  • Cook the zucchini properly: Do not overcook the zucchini, as this can make it mushy. Cook it until it is tender but still has a slight bite.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The vegetable broth is an important flavor component in this soup, so use a good quality broth that is packed with flavor.
  • Add some fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like basil, thyme, or oregano can add a pop of flavor to the soup. Add them at the end of cooking to preserve their flavor.
  • Serve with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese: Grated Parmesan cheese adds a delicious cheesy flavor to the soup. You can also add a dollop of Greek yogurt or sour cream for a creamy finish.

This Weight Watchers Cream of Zucchini Soup is a delicious and healthy soup that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner.
