Recipe video above. It's a cream of vegetable soup.... without the guilt! Super low cal and gluten free, the soup broth is made using whizzed up peeled zucchini, cauliflower and onion. Zucchini has a terrific neutral flavour which makes a creamy broth just like creamy soups thickened using butter and flour (and often cream!) - but with 90% less calories!
