zucchini soup with paprika

2017-05-20

This is a continuation of the Zucchinis with Paprika Syrup recipe, but can easily be made from scratch. The method is the same as Cream of Zucchini Soup, but the paprika gives it a very different flavor.

This summer soup has a lightly sweet flavor which makes it suitable as a chilled dessert soup or a warm soup for all occasions.

INGREDIENTS

This is what you need for 4 servings:

4 medium zucchinis, sliced
1-2 tbsp. paprika powder
OR 4 red bell peppers, cleaned & chopped fine
1 tbsp. olive oil
S&P
