Mushroom and Zucchini Soup
This is a lovely soup full of flavor and great for the cooler weather we have been having, and I just adore the smell of the onions, garlic, mushrooms and wine sauteing at the beginning this is a key for the great taste.
Ingredients:
- one small box of mushrooms
- 1/2 an onion chopped
- 4 cloves of garlic chopped
- one zucchini chopped
- one cup of vegetable broth
- salt and pepper to taste
- a teaspoon of parsley
- a pinch of thyme
- 2 tablespoon of butter
- one cup of water
- 1/4 cup of white wine
Method:
- saute the onion, garlic, wine in butter until translucent
- add the mushrooms and zucchini continue to saute for about 7- 10 minutes until zucchini is soft
- then add the stock and blend
- return to pan and add desired amount of water depending on the thickness of the soup you like.
- season with salt and pepper and thyme
- enjoy with nice bread :-)
I spoke at a local technology conference last friday - Converge South on building a lively community around your brand. I was a tad nervous as it had been a while since I had spoken professionally but all went well and I got great feedback. If your curious I added it to the services/testimonials tab. I want to encourage you to have the guts to submit proposals for conferences and even not within your profession as I am a registered dietitian and normally speak to my colleagues but you never know unless you try. I meet some lovely folks and I am sure will enjoy tweeting and learning from them.
