Zucchini pea Soup is perfectly sweet and creamy soup. Zucchini pea Soup is a great variation of the the regular soups like pea soup or corn soup. The beautiful green of Zucchini and peas gives this vibrant color and silky texture to the soup, it’s irresistible. It is creamy and filling when served with a light side of cheese bread or pesto sandwiches.
I had a big bag of Zucchini sitting in the fridge and I wanted to make something other than kootu. Kootu is my go to menu item when I want to clear out my fridge 🙈. Soup is the next best way to use up leftover veggies. Don’t you agree?
I have seen such fantastic images of beautiful looking soup on Instagram with fall and winter in many parts of the world, I was really temped to capture this delicious soup with high ambitions.
I was soo thrilled with the texture and the color this soup and the evening sunset absolutely caught the best of this dish in the frame here. This frame of warm Zucchini soup is my way of bidding farewell to Summer and welcoming Fall and all the possibilities beyond.
Can I add any other veggies to this recipe?
Yes, I recommend any green veggies like broccoli or beans as it will be a good addition to retain the green color with additional flavors.

- Once it's 3/4th cooked add in the 3 cups of salt, water or vegetable stock and let it simmer for 5 mins.
