Zucchini Soup with Jumbo Lump Crab

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Zucchini crab soup is so delicious, I can’t even say the name without craving it. It’s delicious hot or chilled, and it is a great way to use up the bounty of zucchini in your garden. This post contains affiliate links for products I am obsessed with.

Confession # 46- I have a total woman crush on Gina Homolka of Skinnytaste.com.

You’ve heard of Skinnytaste, right?  If not, you need to check it out.

And, bye, because once you see Gina’s site, you’ll probably never come back here.

She’s just so awesome.  I want to be her when my blog grows up.

My recipe today, zucchini soup, is adapted from one of Gina’s amazing recipes.  This soup is a great way to make use of that giant zucchini in your garden. I’ve been making this soup for years, and recently adapted it for The Fix.  Oh,and I always add jumbo lump crab to make it even more special. But it’s equally as delicious without it, so try it whether you like crab or not!

Updated – I also tried this with bacon instead of the crab and WOW…another keeper.  #everythingisbetterwithbacon

For more Zucchini recipes, check out this awesome list of over 30 delicious recipes!  

Zucchini crab soup is a delicious 21 Day Fix recipe. The soup is delicious hot or chilled, and it's a great way to use garden zucchini.

I hope you’ll try this zucchini crab soup recipe. Enjoy!

Description

Zucchini crab soup is so delicious, I can’t even say the name without craving it. It’s delicious hot or chilled, and it is a great way to use up the bounty of zucchini in your garden.

Recipe adapted from Skinnytaste


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 small onion, quartered
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 3 medium zucchini, skin on and cut in large chunks
  • 32 oz reduced sodium organic chicken broth (veggie is great, too!)
  • 2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt (or sub full fat coconut milk for dairy-free)
  • Himalayan salt and black pepper to taste

Recommended add-ins:

  • fresh grated Parmesan cheese (measure in a blue container)
  • fresh herbs
  • lemon
  • jumbo lump crab (a good quality is KEY!)
  • turkey bacon
  • olive oil (I used Tuscan oil from The Bodacious Olive )

Instructions

  1. Combine chicken broth, onion, garlic, and zucchini in a large pot over medium heat and bring to a boil. Lower heat, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes.**For Instant Pot, combine all the ingredients and set to 5 minutes, manual high pressure. After cook time, switch to quick release and follow the rest of the instructions!
  2. Remove from heat and purée with an immersion blender, or in batches in a regular blender.  Add the yogurt, and herbs (if using) and purée again until smooth.
  3. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and adjust to taste.
  4. Eat it plain, or squeeze in some lemon and add crab, Parmesan cheese, and drizzle with a delicious olive oil.

Notes

21 Day Fix: My bowl was 2 GREENS (soup) 1/2 RED (jumbo lump crab) 1/2 tsp (olive oil) 1/3 BLUE (Parmesan cheese) herbs and lemon (FREE)

WW Freestyle: soup is ZERO points- don’t forget to calculate if you use “add ins”

Keywords: soup, seafood, crab, low-carb, low-cal, gluten-free, grain-free, lunch, dinner, zucchini

    Curious in your container counts about the 1/2 tsp. I didn’t see olive oil added so where does that come from? If i just had the soup (no crab or cheese) would it be just 2 Greens? Thanks for the great recipe!

      Yes! It would be two greens without the crab or cheese. I added olive oil to my bowl as a topping!
