Zucchini soup
Description
Perfect for lunch. Zucchini soup is very easy to prepare, even though it has a complex ingredient list. You can omit some ingredients, for example mushrooms and chicken, and immediately get a light, diet-friendly soup. Cream can also be skipped if someone is on a diet. The key step is to sauté the base, then add water or broth and zucchini. This version of the soup can be blended into a smooth puree. However, I recommend preparing zucchini soup following the full recipe the first time! I'm sure you'll end up making it very often! Good luck with your experiments—serve in bowls and enjoy.
