Creamy Zucchini Soup#SoupSwappers

Had some frozen zucchini in the freezer decided to make a delicious creamy soup with my DIY/Homemade Cream Of Soup Mix. This is so quick and delicious to make do try this recipe.

Ingredients
½ Cup Level Cream Of Soup Mix -DIY/Homemade
1 Big Vegetable Stock Cube
4 - 5 Cups Water
2 Cups Diced Zucchini - I used frozen
1 Clove Garlic - minced
1 Small Onion - finely chopped
A Dash of Black Pepper powder
Salt to taste
1 Tablespoon Butter
1 Teaspoon Mixed Herbs
Toasted Chopped Almonds - as required

Method 
In a sauce pan add the butter , garlic and on medium low flame sauté for a minute, immediately add the onions and sauté till its translucent. Add the cream of soup mix and stir it with a whisk for a minute or two. Now add the diced zucchini and sauté till it softens. Add the stock cube and water and whisk till it is lump free. Continue to whisk on medium low flame till it comes to a boil. Taste for salt and pepper, give the soup a good mix. Puree this in a blender. Add this puree back into the soup and again give it good whisk and heat it if necessary. 
Serve this into big bowls, garnish with a dash of pepper powder and few fresh basil leaves and chopped toasted almonds ( this is optional), the toasted chopped almonds give an awesome crunch to the soup. Enjoy it as a meal or as an appetizer.

  1. I'm always excited for a zucchini recipe and this one does double duty as it gives me a reason to freeze some of the zucchini that collects on my counter in season.
