Ingredients

6 cups water
3 cups onions, diced
5 cups squash, diced (may be a combo of zucchini, yellow squash and summer squash, using at least half zucchini)
7 cups zucchini, sliced in thin half rounds (if using very small squash, full rounds)
3 -4 tablespoons butter
2 1/4 teaspoons leaves oregano, crumbled
1 garlic clove, minced
6 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, grated
1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese
3 tablespoons tamari
1/4 teaspoon black pepper or 1 pinch cayenne

Steps:

Bring water, onion, diced squash, and butter to boil.

Turn heat down to low.
In a tightly covered blender, blend together 1 1/2 cups of the hot soup broth including some of the zucchini slices and the cheddar and cream cheese until smooth.
