"Very easy and quick. Perfect for that bumper crop of zucchini; however, zucchini and summer squash are pretty much available year round. A perfect soup to serve with grilled sandwiches for a light dinner. This soup also freezes very well. This recipe was based on a recipe I found online."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Soup Base ... Add the zucchini, onion, garlic, bacon, chicken broth, all purpose seasoning, and red pepper flakes to a large pot and bring to broil. Reduce immediately to a low simmer and cook approximately 20-30 minutes until tender.

Step 2

Blend ... I use a stick or immersion blender, however you can use a blender as well. Note: is using a blender, make sure to puree this in batches.

Step 3

Finish ... Once the soup is blended smooth (blend it to the consistency you like), add the cream, scallions, pepper and heat everything through.

Step 4

Serve ... Squeeze a fresh lemon wedge over your soup and garnish with sour cream and fresh chives. ENJOY!
