Zucchini Soup

 I may have mentioned that my husband gardens?? Did I mention that he planted 27 Zucchini plants this year?   Did I mention that I am learning LOTS of new ways to use said Zucchini???

This is SOUP!!!

i shredded a ton of it over the summer and froze it - so!!

I got out my trusty crockpot and tossed in: 

• *5 cups of Shredded Zucchini
• *3 diced Medium potato's ( I did not peel them as they were those soft yellow potato's)
• *2 cups of Chicken Broth,.

I cooked it on Low for about 5 hours - then - I turned the heat up to high and added 

*1 8 oz Block of Cream Cheese

Cooked it for 25 minutes 

Then I stirred it up -  I probably should have used my hand blender, but it was soft enough to just stir. I think if I had used my Hand blender the cream cheese would have smoothed in faster. 

We were kind of starving, so we ate a bowl - by the second bowl all the cream cheese had melted in.

But! In our defense we had been out riding for 4 hours, and it was actually chilly that day - Not Winter cold yet - but chilly.... .

And we had a grilled cheese sandwich to go with it 

That was NOT a Bad way to use Zucchini!
