CREAMY ZUCCHINI SOUP
You don't need loads of cream or even a roux to make a creamy zucchini soup. The natural texture of the zucchini flesh whizzes up beautifully to be a silky, creamy texture. It's well worth the extra few minutes to saute onions until golden for the extra flavour it adds. Topping the soup with a pinch of parmesan is a great finishing touch, otherwise try croutons, finely sliced basil or other herb.

Steps:
- Note: There is no need to peel the zucchini for this soup unless yours is jumbo sized, in which case it's possible that the skins are tough and slightly bitter.
- Shred the cheese from a block for best results. Set aside to allow to come down to room temperature. This will allow it to melt and combine into the soup smoothly.
- Melt butter in a soup pot over medium heat. Add onions, cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 more minute.
- Add diced zucchini and seasonings: (1/4 tsp each of: dried rosemary, thyme, celery salt, kosher salt, pepper, and an optional pinch of cayenne.) Sauté for 5 minutes.
- Peel and rinse the potatoes. Cut them into small pieces of equal size so that they cook evenly and quickly.
- Add diced potatoes, chicken broth, and soy sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium. Skim up any brown foam from the top if needed.
- Let simmer, partially covered, until the vegetables are very fork tender. About 20 minutes.
- Remove from heat. Use an immersion blender or transfer to a blender in batches to blend until smooth.

THICK AND EASY ZUCCHINI SOUP
This is my spin on a quick, easy, healthy version of zucchini soup a friend of ours served at a party. This is a nice, thick soup -- much like a split pea in consistency. Mediterranean flavor ~ some might say with a kick depending on your spice levels...we like spice so we find this flavorful, but mild. :)

Steps:
- Heat a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the butter and avocado oil. After butter has melted, stir in the onion. Cook onion until soft and translucent.
- Stir in the zucchini squash and oregano. Sprinkle lightly with salt (optional) and pepper. Don't overdo the salt as the feta and the stock will also add saltiness.

- Cover the pot, leaving the cover slightly off center to allow steam to vent. Simmer until vegetables are soft, about 25 minutes. Stir in the feta cheese and allow to melt slightly. Puree the soup using an immersion blender, or in batches, using a traditional blender.
- Stir in the heavy whipping cream and simmer a few minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning if desired. Soup may be thinned with additional stock if desired.
