Roasted Zucchini Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Lightly toss the zucchini and thyme with 2 tablespoons of the oil (adding the remaining 1 tablespoon oil if needed) and then with some salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Spread the zucchini in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast until the zucchini is tender and browning around the edges, 10 to 13 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a plate. Season with salt and pepper. Serve right away or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
• Add the zucchini, yellow squash, onion and bell peppers to a large mixing bowl and toss with the olive oil, oregano, thyme, salt, pepper and garlic until coated. Divide the vegetables between 2 baking sheets and arrange them in a single layer. Roast, turning the vegetables halfway through, until they start to deepen in color and are slightly tender, about 10 minutes.
• Add the roasted vegetables to the bowl of a slow cooker along with the stock, stewed tomatoes, cream and bay leaf. Set the slow cooker to low and cook for 3 hours.
• Remove the bay leaf, add the lemon juice and, using an immersion blender, pulse to blend the soup until you achieve a smooth and rustic texture. Stir, taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
• Serve in a bowl garnished with the chopped parsley. If freezing, cool the mixture completely, then transfer to freezer-safe bags, seal and place in freezer.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place a rimmed baking sheet in the oven to heat up.
• Place zucchini in a bowl. Add oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne; toss to coat.
• Carefully remove the hot baking sheet and spray lightly with cooking spray. Spread out zucchini in an even layer.
• Roast in the preheated oven until browned, turning halfway, about 20 minutes. Squeeze lemon juice on top and garnish with parsley. Sprinkle sea salt on top.

Steps:

• Saute onion in butter in a large saucepan until tender. Add the zucchini and broth; stir well. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until the zucchini is tender.

Add chopped zucchini and 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Add 3 cups water and simmer, partially covered, until tender, about 15 minutes. Purée soup with basil in 2 batches in a blender (use caution when blending hot liquids).
• Bring remaining cup water to a boil in a small saucepan and blanch julienned zucchini 1 minute. Drain in a sieve set over a bowl (use liquid to thin soup if necessary).
