There's more than great flavor to this perfectly seasoned vegetable soup: it's easy to make, and low in carbs, fat and calories.

2 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
1 medium zucchini, cubed
1 clove garlic, minced
8 large tomatoes, cored
1 small sweet onion, chopped
1 Tbsp chopped fresh red chile pepper
1 (14 oz can) vegetable broth
1 Tbsp dried tarragon
2 tsp dried dill weed
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper

Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir the zucchini and garlic in the skillet until lightly browned. Remove from heat, and set aside.

In a blender or food processor, puree the tomatoes, onion, and chile pepper, leaving a few small chunks.

In a large pot, mix the tomato puree and vegetable broth. Season with tarragon, dill, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and mix in the zucchini and garlic. Cover, and cook 45 minutes.

Garnish w/ a dollop of FF sour cream and some fresh chopped basil.
