Instructions: Let’s Get to Cooking!
Time to put on your chef’s hat! Follow these simple steps:
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until it’s translucent. It should look like it’s having a mid-life crisis, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. You want it fragrant, not burnt, so keep an eye on it!
- Next, toss in the chopped zucchini. Stir it around for a minute, letting it mingle with the onion and garlic. Think of it as a party where everyone is invited.
- Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the whole fabulous mixture to a boil. Then, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15 minutes until the zucchinis are soft and cozy.
- Finally, blend the soup until smooth. You can use an immersion blender or transfer it to a traditional blender if you’re feeling fancy. Just be careful not to have a soup explosion!
- Season the soup with salt and pepper, and ladle it into bowls. Top with that glorious parsley for a pop of color!
And there you have it! An easy, mouth-watering zucchini soup that’s ready to be devoured. Serve it hot and watch your friends and family rave about your culinary prowess. Who knew a veggie could make you the hero of dinner time? Enjoy!
