There is no uncertainty we love soup in our family! I believe it's a Russian thing. I grew up eating soup or borscht consistently, more often than not for lunch. Presently, I've carried on a similar convention in my home.

This new sweet corn and zucchini chowder is summer in a bowl! Made with sweet corn from the cob, zucchini, celery, carrots, onions, and potatoes. It's a veggie pressed soup that isn't just delicious yet so bravo.

• 1 medium carrot, peeled + chopped (1/2 cup)
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/2 tsp. dried thyme
• 2 medium (1 lb.) russet potatoes, peeled, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
• 4 cups water (or veggie stock)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. In a large heavy-duty bottom stockpot or dutch oven, melt butter over medium heat. Add bacon and cook until bacon renders its fat and begins to brown, about 3-4 minutes.
2. Add onion, celery, carrots, garlic, and thyme; cook until vegetables begin to soften, stirring couple times, about 5 minutes.
3. Add potatoes, water, and bay leaf. Raise the heat to medium high and bring to a simmer, then lower the heat back to medium and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until the potatoes are halfway cooked.
4. Add zucchini and corn; season with salt and pepper, to taste, and simmer for additional 8-12 minutes or until the vegetables are completely tender.
5. Discard the bay leaf and then transfer 2 cups of chowder to a food processor or blender; puree until smooth. Stir the mixture back into the pot. Add half and half and cook just until heated through. Taste for salt and pepper.
6. Serve garnished with fresh chopped parsley and sprinkle of cayenne pepper, optional.
