Prep Time:10 mins

Total Time:35 mins
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 4 medium Zucchini
  • 1 medium Onion
  • 3 cloves Garlic cloves
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 4 cups Vegetable broth
  • 6 pieces Laughing Cow cheese wedges
  • 0.5 teaspoons Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley or chives (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Wash the zucchini thoroughly and cut off the ends. Slice the zucchini into thin rounds.

Step 2

Peel and chop the onion into small pieces. Peel and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 3

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and sauté for another 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Step 5

Add the sliced zucchini to the pot and stir to coat with the onion and garlic mixture. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini begins to soften.

Step 6

Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the soup simmer for 15 minutes, or until the zucchini is very tender.

Step 7

Remove the pot from heat. Add the Laughing Cow cheese wedges to the soup.

Step 8

Use an immersion blender to puree the soup directly in the pot until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a countertop blender in batches and blend until smooth, taking care to avoid hot splashes.

Step 9

Return the soup to the pot if using a countertop blender. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir well and reheat gently if needed, but do not let it boil.

Step 10

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped parsley or chives, if desired. Serve hot with crusty bread or crackers.
