Ingredients
  

4 medium zucchinis, chopped

1 large onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 medium potato, peeled and diced

4 cups vegetable broth

1 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for a dairy-free option)

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

1/2 teaspoon dried basil

Fresh herbs (like chives or parsley), for garnish

Instructions
 

Sauté the Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent. Then, add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute, until fragrant.

    Cook the Vegetables: Add the chopped zucchini and diced potato to the pot. Stir well to combine and let them cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini starts to soften.

      Add the Broth: Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

        Blend the Soup: Once the vegetables are cooked through, remove the pot from heat. Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth and creamy. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend only half of the soup and leave the other half as it is.

          Stir in the Cream: Return the pot to low heat, and stir in the heavy cream (or coconut cream). Season the soup with salt, pepper, dried thyme, and dried basil. Let it simmer for about 5 more minutes to let the flavors meld.

            Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls, and garnish with fresh herbs, a drizzle of olive oil, or additional cream if desired. Enjoy your warm, creamy zucchini delight!
