Sweet corn and zucchini are two of summer’s greatest gifts.
Together they create a creamy, comforting chowder without any dairy, making it perfect for a light summer lunch or dinner.
Simple, fresh and full of seasonal flavor.
Sweet Corn & Zucchini Chowder
Ingredients:
- 3 cups fresh corn kernels
- 2 medium zucchini, diced
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 cups water
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, basil or chives for garnish
Instructions:
Add the onion to a pot with a splash of water and cook until softened. Stir in the garlic, zucchini, corn and 3 cups water. Simmer for 15–20 minutes, until the vegetables are tender. Blend about half of the chowder until creamy, then stir it back into the pot. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
A great way to enjoy two of the season’s most abundant vegetables.
I started out over 10 years ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
