    A creamy and delicious Broccoli and Zucchini Soup that is filling, healthy and tastes fantastic. The perfect winter warmer!
    So, you are probably wondering why this photo of Broccoli and Zucchini Soup has some celery next to it??
    ... No, I didn't make a mistake... but it is there for a reason! ....

    The celery is the trick to making this soup go from average ....
    to delicious, tasty, scrumptious!!
    (and all the other describing words to say that IT IS GOOD!) 
    In my home we tend to make thick, filling soups, that are healthy and delicious (and they are probably more like a meal).
    We are not big lovers of broths or thin soup...('they just aren't filling enough' - quote from my family)
     
    So to please my tribe and to make sure they have a healthy soup full of green vegetables - Broccoli and Zucchini Soup is the way to go!
     
    I especially love the colour of this soup because I know that it is healthy and full of vitamins and minerals. (We call it 'Shrek' soup...but I didn't want the world to know it as that 😉
