Ingredients

2 14 1/2-ounce cans low-salt chicken broth
2/3 cup chopped fresh basil
4 tablespoons plain nonfat yogurt

  1. Step 1

    Heat oil in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add cumin; stir until aromatic, about 30 seconds. Mix in zucchini. Add broth; bring soup to boil. Reduce heat; simmer until zucchini is very tender, about 30 minutes. Cool slightly.
