This is a light soup that can be served hot or cold and is perfect for zucchini lovers. I have seen other versions that call for heavy cream and more butter, but honestly, this soup doesn't need it. Ingredients:
4 cups zucchini, cubed |
1 medium onion, diced |
2 (14 ounce) cans fat-free low-sodium chicken broth |
2 tablespoons margarine |
1/2 cup 2% low-fat milk |
1 dash nutmeg |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Heat pot over medium heat, spray with cooking spray. 2. Add onions and cook until they start to turn translucent. 3. Add chicken broth and zucchini. 4. Increase to medium/high heat. 5. Cook 10-15 minutes, until zucchini is tender. 6. In batches if necessary, puree mixture in blender and return to pot. 7. Add butter, 1/2 cup of milk, and dash of nutmeg. 8. Season to taste with salt and pepper. |
