Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion (chopped)
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• 2 stalks celery (chopped)
• 1 medium zucchini (diced)
• 2 cups green chiles (roasted, peeled, and chopped)
• 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
• 1 15-ounce can cannellini beans (rinsed and drained)
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt (non-fat, plain)
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (chopped, for garnish)
• 1 large lime (cut into wedges, for serving)
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the chopped onion, garlic, and celery, and sauté for 5–7 minutes, or until the onion is translucent and fragrant.

Step 3

Stir in the diced zucchini and cook for another 3–4 minutes.

Step 4

Add the roasted green chiles, vegetable broth, and cannellini beans to the pot. Stir well to combine.

Step 5

Season the mixture with ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper.

Step 6

Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 7

Transfer about half of the soup to a blender and blend until smooth. Be cautious when blending hot liquids; allow steam to escape to avoid pressure buildup.

Step 8

Return the blended portion to the pot and stir to incorporate. This will create a creamy texture while keeping some chunks for added texture.

Step 9

Remove the pot from heat and whisk in the Greek yogurt until smooth and well combined.

Step 10

Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary, adding more salt or pepper as desired.

Step 11

Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with chopped cilantro, and serve with a wedge of lime on the side for a fresh and tangy finish.
