Zucchini Soup: My Childhood Comfort Food
July 24, 2008
Yes!
When I’m down, I like to eat mac n’ cheese, Klondike bars, and chocolate chip cookies, but the coziest comfort food I can think of is warm, creamy soup. I love soup. So when I started feeling kind of down last week, I decided to make the soup that takes me way back to early childhood in my mom’s house: zucchini soup. I think the reason I loved this soup so much as a kid is that it had a really simple, savory flavor. And it went well with cheese. And I love cheese.
Anyway, I called my mom to get the recipe, and she wasn’t near her phone. Seeing as I needed comfort food ASAP, I decided to go for it on my own, and ended up with a successful reinvention of one of my favorite soups.
