No Carb Zucchini Soup

Here is a meal that is nutritious, easy and quick to make. I whipped this up for lunch today in 10 minutes, and it tasted great too.

1 punnet zucchini, sliced
1/4 cup cauliflower
splash of olive oil
1/2t whole coriander seeds
1/2t whole cumin seeds
1t good quality vegetable stock powder mixed with 1/2 cup boiling water or the equivalent of good vegetable stock
1/2 cup Greek yoghurt

Dry heat the coriander and cumin in a pan until toasted. Ground in a pestle and mortar.
Brown the zucchini in the olive oil. Add the cauliflower, 1t ground spices and cover with the stock. Add more boiling water if required so that the vegetables are covered. Simmer until soft. Add the yoghurt and heat through. Puree in a blender and enjoy.

Tips; Add bacon or grated cheddar cheese for a change in flavour. Use cream instead of yoghurt for a decadent treat. This would make a great start to a low carb dinner party.
Use coconut milk instead of Yoghurt and add some Thai Green Curry paste.
