Ultimate Reset: Zucchini-Cashew Soup


A fabulous friend of mine grows magnificently beautiful zucchini in her backyard, and she generously gifted two GIANTS upon me this week.  So I decided to create another winner from the Ultimate Reset recipe guide, this super easy recipe tastes scrumptiously creamy without ANY dairy!


What you'll need:
2 oz raw cashews (about 34 cashews)
3 medium zucchinis (I used one very large one)
3 cups water, divided
   
     Optional ingredients (to taste):
        Himalayan salt
        Bragg Liquid Aminos
        Herbal Seasoning blend
        Fresh herbs

What you'll do:
  1. Soak cashews in 1 cup water for 1 hour. Set aside.
  2. Cut zucchini into chunks.
  3. Bring 2 cups water to boil over medium heat.
  4. Add zucchini, cook for 4-6 minutes.
  5. Drain. Set aside.
  6. Place cashews, water, zucchini, and any optional items into a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
  7. Heat soup over medium heat, stirring frequently, for 4-6 minutes

It is also pretty delicious served cold!  Bon appetit!


NOTE:  This recipe is for 2 servings of soup.  ;)

  3. Cut your zucchini in half lengthwise
  4. Scoop out the seeds
  5. Throw in the pot to blanche the zucchini for about a minute
     
     6. Remove zucchini from water and dry off with a paper towel
     7. Scoop a generous amount of feta into the "boat"
