BRIAM (GREEK BAKED ZUCCHINI AND POTATOES)
Briam is a traditional Greek roasted vegetable dish with potatoes, zucchini, tomatoes, and red onions with lots of olive oil. It is a typical example of Greek cuisine where a few simple ingredients are turned into an utterly delicious dish with little effort. It can be served as a main course. With olive oil as the only source of fat it is a quintessential example of the Mediterranean diet, and it is vegan to boot. If preferred, serve with a hearty chunk of feta on the side.

Looking for a different way to serve a bounty of zucchini? Try this soup sent in by Germaine Stank of Pound, Wisconsin. A food processor hurries along preparation of the thick-full-flavored blend that's accented by just a hint of nutmeg.

TOMATO ZUCCHINI BISQUE
This was a quick bisque I whipped up. Just an idea if you are tying to use veggies from your garden. It was delicious.I added some hot banana peppers and jalapeno peppers to ours, but most people don't like that much kick. That was just to make it spicy. You can try that if you like. The whipping cream is not neccessary, leave it out and it will still be delicious. You also may incorporate about a cup of grated parmesan with your immersion blender after you take it off the heat. I couldn't decide if I liked it better on top or incorporated. It was good both ways. Serve with hot, crusty bread. (See my 10 minute bread. It is quick and delicious.)

Tips:
- Use a variety of zucchini. Different types of zucchini, such as yellow, green, and pattypan, can add different flavors and textures to your bisque.
- Roast the zucchini before adding it to the soup. Roasting the zucchini will help to caramelize it and bring out its natural sweetness.
- Don't overcook the potatoes. Potatoes should be cooked until they are tender, but not mushy.
- Use a good quality vegetable broth. The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth that is flavorful and well-seasoned.
- Add your favorite toppings. Croutons, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped chives, and sour cream are all great toppings for zucchini potato bisque.

Zucchini potato bisque is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover zucchini. With its creamy texture and fresh, flavorful ingredients, zucchini potato bisque is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
