So delicious! I used the carrot, celery, onion chopped mix from Trader Joe’s and it makes it so easy!

We LOVE this soup! We’ve made it twice in two weeks and are looking forward to making it again. The parmesan rinds adds a really rich, deep flavor. We leave out the zucchini and add 1/2 tsp. umami seasoning. We’ve made it with both chicken and regular pork sausage and both are delicious. Thank you for the recipe!

For those who said the zucchini measurement is left out, it clearly says one sliced zucchini.
