Corn off the Cob and Zucchini Soup
This soup just screams summer. My garden gives me the gift of many zucchini and I am always looking for new ways to serve them. Another great summer gift is corn so you can see how I got inspired to create this soup recipe. Healthy and delicious and oh so summer!
Ingredients:
2 medium to large zucchini, chopped
1 white or yellow onion chopped
3-4 carrots, scrubbed and chopped
3-4 celery stalks with greens chopped
2-3 corn on the cob
2 red potatoes, scrubbed and chopped
1 teaspoon fresh dill or 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
salt and pepper to taste
5-6 cups vegetarian broth or corn infused broth
drizzle olive oil
Lemon wedge for post cooking squeeze
In large soup pot drizzle olive oil and sauté onion, carrots, dill and celery for 5 minutes. Add potatoes and broth and cook on medium/low for 5 minutes. Add corn with kernels removed and zucchini, salt and pepper. Allow soup to cook until zucchini and potato is tender about 10- 15minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
Serve soup warm. Optional: a squeeze of lemon per bowl is a nice way to post-season with a burst of flavor. Garnish with fresh dill or parsley
