When my husband and I planted our first garden, we overdid it with the zucchini plants. By the end of harvest, I was at my wit's end wondering what I could do with the rest of the zucchini. My sister saved the day with this soup, although I added the potato and eggs to make the recipe my own.

Oh, I did add 1/4 tsp of garlic powder, 1 1/2 tsp of salt and one more potato since we all love our potatoes.

This is a good way to use up zucchini. My husband has been on a dairy free diet for many years and has missed the creamy type soups. He loved this soup saying it was a good substitute for a creamy soup. My 8 and 10 year old kids liked it too. Will be making it again.
