ZUCCHINI:

  • We utilize zucchini because it gives a tender texture and mild flavor. Instead, you can use yellow squash.

GREEN BEANS:

  • Green beans provide a fresh taste and slight crunch to the soup. As a different choice, we could use asparagus.

MUSHROOMS:

  • We utilize mushrooms because they add a rich, savory flavor and meaty texture. Instead, you can use eggplant.

BUTTER:

  • Butter gives the soup a rich, smooth finish. As a substitute, you can use ghee.

CHOCOLATE CHIPS:

  • Sugar-free chocolate chips are used as an optional garnish for a unique bittersweet finish. As an alternative, you can use sugar-free dark chocolate shavings or omit them completely.
