Cold courgette soup (sounds odd but I think it's absolutely delicious)

Peel about 4 or 5 normal sized courgettes and cut into chunks.  Peel and quarter one onion.  Add to a saucepan, cover with water and add a veg stock cube.  Cook until very tender.  Drain the veg and puree it (keep a little liquid separately in case you want to add a little to the end mixture if it's very very thick).  Add a whole boursin cheese (reduced fat or normal) and puree until mixed and smooth.  Allow to get cold then serve.  Best made the day before serving.

This is more of a starter soup and not one of those that you would eat as a main course with loads of bread.

Enjoy!  :)

Hi - Haven't tried it but this recipe was emailed through to me today

http://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/2010/08/zucchini_pecan_cake_with_cream_cheese_frosting

Hope it works

If I have too many I slice them put them in layers in trays and loose freeze, then bag them and use them instead of aubergines in moussaka.
All the best
