This is really good. Loved the consistency that results from being pureed. Please note when blending hot liquids, not to add too much to the blender at one time. The liquid could explode over the top causing you to get burned. Added only one teaspoon of rosemary so as to not overpower the delicate flavor of zucchini. Very tasty, light soup. Loved it. Thanks for sharing.
