Kathy's Yellow Summer Squash Soup

Kathy's Yellow Summer Squash Soup

 

I love the farmers market and this time I took a client. He bought loads of stuff. I thought I was being frugal with what I was buying for my house. But after cooking his stuff for him the past 2 weeks. I am burned out and several things I bought have wilted and gone to the chickens, turtles and bunny.

 

I looked for recipes on line and ended up modifying several I found.

 

This will serve 4

 

2 yellow crook neck squash chopped

1 small yellow onion chopped

1 6 inch sprig rosemary (stemmed)

1 lemon zested/juiced

2 cloves garlic sliced

salt and pepper

1 can vegetable broth

1/2 C heavy cream

 

Optional garnish with shredded parmesan cheese and crumbled bacon.

 

I put the first 7 ingredients in the pot. Brought it to a boil and let it simmer for 30 mins or so til things were tender. I used my immersion blender and puréed everything til smooth then added about 1/2 a cup or less of heavy cream . I topped it with shredded parmesan cheese, crumbled bacon would have been a nice addition as a garnish as well
