I have found it better to add the zucchini and potatoes together along with the broth and simmer until soft. Makes it easier when blending, too. Enjoy.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon butter
1 medium onion, chopped
3 1/2 cups zucchini, grated
2 cups potatoes, grated
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup evaporated milk (or 3/4 cup water & 2/3 cup dry skim milk)
1 pinch basil
1 pinch thyme
1 bay leaf
fresh chives (for garnish)
Directions:
1. In 3 quart casserole, cook butter and onions covered on high 2-3 minutes.
2. Add potatoes and herbs. Cover, cook high 6-8 minutes. Stir once.
3. Add zucchini. Cover, cook high 4-6 minutes. Stir once.
4. Puree in blender. (Note: Remove bay leaf first!).
5. Return to casserole with broth. Cover and cook on high 6-8 minutes. Stir once or until boiling.
6. Add milk, salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with chives.
7. Serve hot or cold. Can add bacon bits or hot dogs.
