Here's another delicious way to use fresh zucchini, the Spicy Mexican Zucchini Soup. This Mexican dish is creamy, cheesy, and loaded with veggies. This soup is warming and filling, you will go back for bowl after bowl.
One of my favorite soups is this fragrant Mexican zucchini soup with an incredible texture, which makes it the perfect comfort soup for any season.
Zucchini: Yellow squash can be used or use a combination of both, cut into cubes or half slices.
