Zucchini-Basil Soup

BASIL ZUCCHINI SOUP LOW FODMAP-1

Zucchini creates a lovely creamy base for this incredibly flavorful, antioxidant-rich soup. This is a wonderful recipe to make when you have an abundance of garden zucchini and fresh basil. Any variety of fresh basil works well in this recipe—try sweet basil, Thai basil, or purple mountain basil (pictured here)! Freeze quart jars of the soup for later use!

Ingredients
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 leeks chopped
1 inches fresh ginger finely grated
8 cups chopped zucchini (3 pounds)
2 cups chicken bone broth
1 cans coconut milk
1½ teaspoons sea salt
2 cups fresh basil (packed)

This soup is delicious! It's creamy and filling and there was enough left over to freeze some of it. I will definitely be making it again!

100% delicious ~ This is a keeper. I made it exactly 'as is'. Very simple ingredients. I was hesitant about adding a whole can of full fat coconut milk but there was only a slight hint of coconut. I will freeze one portion to see if that is a good idea - not sure about how well it freezes. August 2022

Delicious! I’m not the biggest fan of basil, but in this soup, it blends right in…no pun intended. This will get made annually when zucchini is in season.
