Chilled Zucchini Soup Shooters ♥

Chilled Zucchini Soup
Here's a soup that will satisfy as summer winds toward autumn, made with little more than zucchini charmed with a touch of curry and served cold. It tastes much richer than it is, for the recipe is low carb and for Weight Watchers, either 1 or 2 points. Enjoy!

If I were the "document everything" sort, I could impress you by naming exactly how many recipes there are here on A Veggie Venture. But I'm not that sort. Sure, I could figure it out, it wouldn't even take that long. Maybe some day I will. But it seems beside the point somehow -- for there's no disputing that A Veggie Venture has a lot, a LOT of vegetable recipes whether it's a 1000 or 1200 or 1400. How many vegetable recipes are here? A lot. That's all you (and I) really need to know.

During the first year, I cooked a new vegetable recipe every day (that was the "Veggie" part), and posted it, good or bad (the "Venture" part). It surprises me that nearly all the recipes, even the ones from six years ago that I've not made again, remain familiar. So when I happened onto a recipe for a chilled zucchini soup on Food52, I knew there was already a recipe here like that -- and that back in 2005, it hadn't been very good. So being an "Out with the old! In with the new!" sort, that's exactly what I've done.

And this, dear readers, is the new recipe, the one worth making, the one I'm happy to recommend, the one that had me up at midnight one night, taking a spoon to the refrigerator for just one more bite.

The soup is surprisingly creamy -- in fact, first taste, you'll think, "Wow, this is rich." But it's not. It's just onion and zucchini and some chicken broth. It's good enough warm but it's designed to be served cold and that's what I did, like shooters, small cupfuls with tiny spoons. Add another vegetable recipe to the list, we're up one.
