I love creamy soups but I don’t like always using heavy cream. I get basically the exact flavors using flour, broth, and milk instead.
All you have to do to make this soup is sauté the onions and garlic in a little coconut oil. Add the flour, broth, and milk. Then add the grated veggies and seasonings. Then simmer for about 30 minutes.
Pair this zucchini soup with a favorite piece of fruit and slice of bread for a great healthy lunch or dinner.
How to Make this Cream of Zucchini Soup
In a large saucepan, saute the onion and garlic in the coconut oil on medium-high for 5-7 minutes or until the onion is tender.
Stir in the flour and mix until combined well.
Stir in the broth and milk and bring to a boil
Reduce the heat and add the zucchini, carrot, and thyme.
Cook for 30 minutes, or until veggies are tender, stirring occasionally.
ENJOY!!
Pro Tip: If you want to make it even more hearty, add a can of white northern beans or lentils.
Use other spices instead of thyme if you’d like. Basil or curry flavors are amazing too.

Could you give a measurement (in cups) for the zucchini. I have a very large zucchini.

It is about 2 cups of shredded zucchini, but a little more would be fine too, 🙂 I hope you enjoy it as well!
Lynne
I made this into a low carb recipe by using xanthan gum as the thickener instead of flour and unsweetened original almond milk instead of regular milk. Added a pinch of cayenne pepper because spice is nice!
Cindy
Delicious!!! I added black beans (that’s all I had) also served with Parmesan cheese. Lots of pepper!!
Ann Burke
Delicious ! I used olive oil and condensed milk instead of regular milk, made it much richer!

Followed directions as written. Thought the coconut oil added too much flavor. Will make again but will use olive oil instead. May use a little less thyme.
