Ingredients

Instructions

  1. . Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.
  2. . Add diced zucchini to the pot. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until zucchini starts to soften.
  3. . Pour in diced tomatoes and vegetable broth. Add oregano and dried basil. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
  4. . For a chunkier soup, leave as is. For a smoother texture, partially blend with an immersion blender. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. . Ladle into bowls. Top with fresh torn basil and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

Recipe Notes

  • Use medium-sized zucchini for the best texture
  • Don't overcook the zucchini—it should be tender but not mushy
  • Fresh Parmesan makes a noticeable difference over pre-grated
