What to do with all that green?

Make soup, of course. Zucchini soup is no stranger to most, but this recipe is extra quick and healthy. The herbs have a lot of vitamins and minerals, even more than you'll find in most vegetables and fruit.

Parsley in particular is great for you. It's got vitamins A, B (1,2,3,6 and 11), C, E, and K - plus minerals like calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, sodium, and zinc. So good 😉

And the best part? The soup's done in 10 minutes.

Ingredients for a super healthy and quick zucchini soup

How do you make zucchini soup?

Here's the recipe:

Ingredients (for 2 people):

  • 1 medium zucchini, cubed
  • large bunch of parsley and chives, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cube of boullion (vegetable or meat stock)
  • parmesan cheese (or soft herb cheese)

Preparation:

Bring the zucchini to a boil in a pot with the bouillion and a little water.

Once the zucchini is fairly soft - after about 5 minutes - puree it with a (hand) mixer or blender. If needed, add some more water if it's too thick.

Stir the chopped parsley and chives into the soup. Bring to a boil again and serve immediately.

Delicious with some grated parmesan cheese on top 😋

Or, if you want it a little creamier, add a generous spoonful of herb cheese like Boursin.
