Roasted Pepper Zucchini Soup


  Very low cal and low carb and very yummy!

Ingredients

  • 2 Small Jars of Roasted Peppers
  • 3 Tbs Olive Oil
  • 1 to 1 1/4 pounds small zucchini, very thinly sliced into discs
  • 1 medium red onion, peeled and thinly sliced into rings
  • 5 to 6 baby Yukon gold potatoes, very thinly sliced into discs (like potato chips)
  • 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 Tbs finely chopped thyme
  • 2 Tbs finely chopped basil
  • 2 Tbs finely chopped oregano
  •  1 (28-ounce) can fire-roasted crushed tomatoes, stewed tomatoes or chunky-style crushed tomatoes
  • 2 to 3 cups chicken or vegetable stock

Directions

Heat 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil in a your pot. When the oil ripples, add the zucchini,onions, potatoes, garlic, and herbs and saute the vegetables until tender-crisp, 12 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the tomatoes and roasted peppers and allow the tomatoes to breakdown a few minutes. Stir in enough stock to desired consistency - as thin or thick as you like.  Not a slow cooking soup because you don't want the zucchini to become mushy :O


ENJOY!!
