Ingredients

  • 1/2 small onion quartered
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 3 medium zucchini skin on and cut in large chunks
  • 32 oz reduced sodium organic chicken broth veggie is great, too!
  • 2 tablespoons 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

  • 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!
  • 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.
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper and adjust to taste.
  • Eat it plain, or squeeze in some lemon and add crab, Parmesan cheese, and drizzle with a delicious olive oil.
