CURRIED APPLE AND ZUCCHINI SOUP
Original recipe presented by The Darby Field Inn & Restaurant, I have modified it a bit. That recipe called for 1/2 cup cooked rice, which you can certainly add here if you wish. This soup is full of curry spice, and the added sweetener is optional. I have been using gala apples, granny smith might work nicely as well.

CURRIED ZUCCHINI SOUP
From Moosewood Restaurant Daily Special (1999). One of my favorite soups for any time of year but would be a great way to use up too much zucchini during the summer. I use a good curry powder from Penzey's and sometimes replace up to 1/2 teaspoon with a hot curry blend for more heat. I also sometimes replace half the potatoes with sweet potatoes. Could use chicken stock for a non-veggie option. Serve hot or chilled.
