Tomato And Zucchini Stew Recipe

3 Tbsp cooking oil
1 large onion, diced
2 stalks of celery, diced
3 small zucchini, shredded
2 lbs tomatoes, diced small
1 cup good tomato paste
chives for garnish

In a large soup pot over medium heat, add the oil, onion, celery, and zucchini; cook, stirring, until vegetables soften slightly.

Add the tomatoes and tomato paste, stir to combine, then add the broth and stir again; bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer gently for about 30 minutes. You should loosely cover the pot and check and stir the contents often.

Serve hot with a sprinkle of chives on top of each bowl if you like.

Will serve 4 to 6.
