Weight Watchers Zero Point+ Veggie Soup

Weight Watchers Garden Vegetable Soup

It's 0 points plus per cup and a good snack to keep me from eating what I actually want to eat.  Says it makes 6 servings.

1.  Use cooking spray to spray a nonstick saucepan, heat.  Saute' 1/2 cups sliced carrots, 1/4 cup diced onions (my husband will never eat this), and 2 minced cloves of garlic over low heat until softened about 5 minutes.
2.  Add 3 cups fat free broth (beef, chicken, or veggie), 1 cup diced green cabbage (I buy the pre shredded stuff), 1 cup chopped spinach, 1 Tbs. tomato paste, 1/2 tsp. dried basil, 1/4 tsp. dried oregano, and 1/4 tsp. salt.  Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, & simmer for about 15 minutes.
(Obviously, I used a huge soup pot... overkill.  A large sauce pan will be fine).

3.  Stir in 1 cup diced zucchini, and cook 3-4 more minutes.  I also added 1 cup of diced summer squash (yellow squash).
(Taken with my phone... much better!)
This was absolutely delicious!  Yes, I'm eating soup on a 100 degree summer day.  No, I don't know what's wrong with me.
