Mushroom & Zucchini Blend

Ingredients

• 1 cup white mushrooms, cleaned and quartered
• 1 medium zucchini, sliced

Method

1. 01

   Clean and quarter 1 cup of white mushrooms. Slice 1 medium zucchini into half-inch rounds.

2. 02

   Place mushrooms in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 4 minutes.

3. 03

   Add zucchini rounds and continue steaming for another 5-6 minutes until both are completely tender.

4. 04

   Transfer to a blender — the mushrooms and zucchini release plenty of moisture during cooking.

5. 05

   Blend until smooth and savory, adding just 1-2 tablespoons of liquid if needed for a smooth flow.

How to offer
