Tomato & Zucchini Soup
This is a great soup to use up fresh tomatos in summer and it is light and summery.
6-8 large fresh tomatos, preferably a juicy variety.
2-3 small-med zucchini, washed unpeeled.
1tsp-1Tbsp minced or crushed fresh garlic
1 can vegetable broth or 2-3 cups homemade.
3 Tbsp olive oil.
1-2 tsp dried tarragon, adjust to taste.
Chop tomatos into a bowl to catch juices.
Cut zucchini into 1 or 2 inch chunks or rounds if not too big around. Saute in stock pot in olive oil with garlic till just starting to soften but still crisp. Season with salt & pepper and tarragon. Immedietly add tomatoes and juice. Add vegetable broth to desired amount of juice. I dont like this soup to be swimming with juice I like it a bit chunky. Simmer for about 30 minutes to meld flavors. Serve with crisp french bread.
