Zucchini Soup
I know kids can be hard to get veggies into, much less GREEN veggies but this soft and creamy soup had my kids licking their bowls and asking for seconds. I sometimes let them drink their soup through a straw, which 1. makes it more FUN and 2. gets them to actually eat the soup without making a huge mess.
Even though zucchini can seem like a bland veggie, this soup is full of flavor and is one of my personal favorites!
Stock up by making lots of double batches in the summer and you can enjoy this tasty soup into the winter, long after the zucchini harvest is gone.
