I am a big fan of soups. Here is another one with Zucchini that I got from my FIL's girlfriend. Please, feel free to adjust to your personal tastes. Ingredients:
4 slices bacon |
6 medium zucchini |
14 1/2 ounces beef consomme |
2 1/2 cups water |
1 chopped onion, medium |
1 chopped garlic clove |
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley |
1 teaspoon basil |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
1 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Brown and chop bacon.
2. Lightly brown onion and garlic in 1 tablespoon of bacon fat.
3. Then add remaining ingredients.
4. Heat to boiling.
5. Reduce heat and simmer until zucchini is tender (about 15 min).
6. Put 2 cups at a time of this mixture in a blender.
7. NOTE: Bacon can be pureed with rest of ingredients or crumbled over top when served.
8. Blend at high speed until pureed (Looks like somewhat like split pea soup).
9. Reheat and serve with optional cheese, parsley, chives on top.
