Instructions

Heat 2 tablespoons of Olive Oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 60 seconds until fragrant
Add the chopped zucchini to the pot. Stir well to coat the pieces in the Olive Oil and aromatics. Cook for about 5-7 minutes
Pour in the broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 15 minutes, or until the zucchini is very tender
Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until completely smooth. Stir in the coconut milk and lemon juice. Season with sea salt and black pepper

Notes

Don't peel the zucchini to retain nutrients and color.
