Ingredients

    1 1/2 - 32 oz cartons of veggie broth (or broth and water)
    1 box dried hashbrowns from Costco (or frozen) - or just dice some potatoes
    1/3 cup potato flakes, but I am sure this could be left out :)
    1 HUGE zucchini (Mine was about 4 lbs ... ?)
    Large bunch of green onion tops, garlic chives, and basil (I cut from my garden while zucchini was cooking ;)
    4 cups rice milk, or other unsweetened non-dairy milk :)

    Optional ingredients for variations:

    Green Curry Paste
    Frozen Corn

Directions

Put broth and potatoes into stock pot.

Cut zucchini into chunks and run it through food processor. I have a large processor, but it took two batches. Add finely processed zucchini to stock pot.

Wash herbs and run through the food processor (pretty much filled mine again ;) Instead of adding to stock pot, I transferred some of the soup back to the processor to puree with the fresh herbs. I put the rest of the soup from the stock pot into my Ninja to puree. I ended up adding about 4 cups (?) of unsweetened rice milk to thin it all. I mixed it all together in the stock pot and seasoned with black pepper and Italian seasoning. I gave it a shot of Bragg's Liquid Aminos too ;) I filled two mason jars with the soup. In a THIRD jar, I mixed some green curry paste and rice milk, then filled with soup - to have one jar with a different flavor. I then added CORN to the remainder in the stock pot and filled TWO more jars! :) So we can see how we like it with corn ;)

The soup is really thick. I'm not sure if it is really soup ;)

I decided to serve it over brown rice, and topped with fresh sliced cherry tomatoes, fresh ground black pepper, and a smidge of fresh ground sea salt. Yum :)
