Thick and Easy Zucchini Soup

This is my spin on a quick, easy, healthy version of zucchini soup a friend of ours served at a party. This is a nice, thick soup -- much like a split pea in consistency. Mediterranean flavor.

• Ready In: 30 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 6 -8  zucchini, sliced (small to medium size)
• 1  large onion, chopped (or 2 medium onions)
• 2 (8 ounce) cans vegetable broth
• 3  garlic cloves
• 4  teaspoons cumin
• 1  teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1  teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1  teaspoon ground cardamom
• 1⁄2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

1. Lightly saute zucchini, onions and garlic in a pan over medium heat.
2. When half way done, add all spices and 1 can of broth and finish cooking until tender, but firm.
3. Blend in blender, adding additional stock as needed, stopping when you have a thick, split pea consistency.
4. Enjoy!
