Sausage Zucchini Soup is a hearty, low carb, Paleo, Whole 30, gluten free and dairy free soup that is quick and easy to put together and a crowd pleaser too!
My Mom has been making Sausage Zucchini Soup for years. She got the recipe from my aunt and she got it from a friend.
This recipe has been around for quite a while and is a good one to pass on and on.
It is a good soup for company or big groups and a great way to use prolific garden zucchini. The sausage gives it a hearty flavor.
One reason I love it is because it is SO easy to make.
I usually have sausage cooked up ahead of time and in the freezer ready to go so only need to dump things in a pot and simmer it for a while.
Try this! I think you will like it!
Could it be made in the Slow Cooker?
Yes! There are no ingredients that need to be cooked ahead of time except for the sausage so as long as that is cooked and drained, the soup can be made in the crock pot (affiliate link). Just add it all to the crock pot (affiliate link) and cook on low 6-8 hours.
Could yellow squash be used?
This is called Sausage Zucchini Soup but yellow squash works too. When I made this batch I had one of each and it was great.
