About the recipe

I made this soup with over 5 zucchinis to add in as much vegetables as I could for a large pot of soup, yet this was all finished with no leftovers. This zucchini soup is one that everyone in the family loved with feedback like “This is awesome soup.” and “It’s delicious Mommy.” and “It’s really good.”  How can I get better feedback than this?

Generous amount of ginger and garlic give the soup that flavor punch, while coconut milk and a couple of small potatoes add that creamy texture. Then add fresh-squeezed lemon juice and fresh cilantro and you get a zucchini soup that tastes positively delicious.
