Ever have one of those moments where zucchini just keeps multiplying in your kitchen like a magic trick? Or in your garden? Or your generous neighbour's garden?

We're talking full-on Zucchinischwemme (German for "zucchini flood" – anyone else have a funny word for harvest overload?).

But no worries, I'm here to help. So, take a deep breath and let your worries, go, go, go ... Because this roasted zucchini soup is your zucchini-licious escape plan!

This recipe is my secret weapon for Zucchinischwemme season (or, you know, any time I need a quick and easy and uber delicious weekday meal). It's so good, I usually double or triple the recipe – hello, leftovers for next-day lunches!

Just imagine: golden, roasty-toasty zucchini cubes and garlic from the oven. Your kitchen filled with an aroma so good it'll make your tummy rumble in happy anticipation.

Next: A quick blending action of those beauties with cooked potatoes, and just like that, you've got a "Get in my belly, gorgeous!" soup. Velvety smooth, light (no heavy cream - no cream whatsoever needed), and satisfying at the same time.

Easy (& Crazy) Swaps

Potato Swap

No potatoes on hand? Swap them for 200 g of your fave vegan cooking cream to keep things luscious and creamy. In this scenario, I like jazzing the soup with ½ teaspoon of ground nutmeg.

Zucchini Swap

Not dealing with "zucchini flood"? Let me think.

Are you enjoying high watermelon season? Yes!!! A, wonderful! Here’s a wild crazy idea – swap the zucchini for watermelon RIND! Yep, you read that right – the rind! It's perfectly edible and cooks up surprisingly yummy, tasting a bit like zucchini once it's all soft and cozy. (If you don't believe me, check out this watermelon rind salad or this curry recipe).

Here's what you do: Grab some (organic) watermelon rind, roughly the same amount you would have used for zucchini. No need to peel that deep green outer layer (that super hard, crunchy part). Cube the watermelon rind, and cook it (no roasting!) in veggie broth for about 30 minutes or until it's tenderly soft. Then, continue with step #5 from the recipe below.

Serve This Roasted Zucchini Soup With ...

Like any creamy soup, this roasted zucchini soup is practically begging for some good old bread dipping action – white bread or sourdough, you choose. Dip those fluffy slices in, or tear big chunks apart and let them rain down on your soup.

If you're feeling a bit more crunch in your life, these golden croutons are here to make you happy! Pile them high on top, and get ready for a fun medley of textures in every spoonful – creamy, cozy, and oh-so-crunchy.
