Broccoli or Zucchini soup

We had this at Enrichment a few weeks ago, and it was delicious. A warning: If you put it in the food processor, it comes out textured sort of like baby food. If you don't want it that fine, I would suggest mashing it.

Saute in pot until very tender then mash or pure in blender/food processor.
Add vegetables to-
