Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons oil olive or avocado
- 1 small sweet onion finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves finely minced
- 1 ½ pounds zucchini about 4 medium
- 3 cups vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoons salt to taste
- ¼ teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons yogurt

Instructions
- Cut zucchini into ¼-½ inch pieces.
- Sauté onion and oil in a Dutch oven or large pot for 2-3 minutes over medium heat. Add crushed garlic and continue sautéing for 1 minute.
- Push the onion to the side and add the cut zucchini. Sauté for 5 minutes, or until the edges begin to lightly brown.
- Pour in broth and add Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring pot to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Turn off heat and add yogurt. Blend ingredients with an immersion blender until smooth and creamy. You can also carefully transfer it to a high speed blender or large food processor and blend until smooth.
