This is a very different recipe I've tried and thought it was good. Zucchini is a great green vegetable for someone on a high fiber diet.
Ingredients:
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 tablespoon butter or margarine
- 4 to 6 medium zucchini, sliced
- 1 large potato, peeled and diced
- 1/4 tsp. thyme
- 1/4 tsp. rosemary
- 1/4 tsp. basil
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/8 tsp.pepper
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup skim milk
Directions:
In a large fry pan saute onion in hot butter. Add zucchini, potato, herbs, salt and pepper. After mixture is hot, cook 3 minutes; stir occasionally. Add broth; simmer for 15 minutes. Puree in blender. Return mixture to saucepan. Add milk; heat slightly. Serve hot or cold.

Ingredients
- 5-7 zucchini
- 1 large white onion
- 1 stick butter
- 2 cups homemade chicken stock
- 2-3 cups buttermilk
- cilantro, to taste
- salt
Directions
Dice onion and saute in butter. Add sliced zucchini and chicken stock; simmer all in kettle until tender. Cool slightly. Puree in blender, alternating between liquid from chicken stock in kettle and buttermilk. Add cilantro to taste. I use lots and either fresh of dried will work fine. Add more or less buttermilk according to the consistency you prefer. I like my soup with body. Add salt to taste. Serve warm or chilled.
