Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups corn (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 medium zucchinis, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent.
  3. Stir in the diced zucchini and cook for a few minutes until tender.
  4. Add in the corn and vegetable broth, bringing the mixture to a simmer.
  5. Let it cook for about 10-15 minutes until everything is soft.

Notes

For a lighter option, consider swapping heavy cream with coconut milk. Fresh herbs like basil or parsley can really elevate the dish’s flavor.
