     Zucchini Basil soup

Category   Salads - Soups - Sidedishes
Sub Category   None

Ingredients
1/4 cup olive oil or less
1 large onion, chopped
2 T minced garlic (about 6 cloves)
3 pounds unpealed zucchini (about 4 large), chopped in 3/4 inch chunks
1/2 t ground nutmeg
1/8 t crushed red pepper flakes
t salt
t freshly ground black pepper
1 cup white wine
 
4 cups chicken stock
1 cup fresh basil, chopped
/2 cup greek yogurt (non-fat or regular, but make sure its plain)
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

Instructions
Heat the oil in a large pot and add onions. Stir for a few minutes until they are translucent but not brown, then stir in the garlic for one minute. Add the zucchini, nutmeg, red pepper flakes, salt & pepper, and stir for another 10 minutes until the zucchini becomes soft around the edges. Add the wine, stock, basil, and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Ina then suggests you churn the soup through a food mill, but I don't have one, so I used the pulse-puree setting on my blender for about 10 seconds, blending the soup in sections, ensuring the balance of liquid and solid in each batch. I like soup a little chunky, but you can puree it as much or as little as you'd like. This would make an excellent meal for babies in a very blended form, too! Once you have the right consistency, but all the soup back in your pot (simmer again if it has cooled a lot, but then turn it off), stir in the greek yogurt and most of the parmesan cheese.
