New World Soup

This soup is made entirely from ingredients found in the "New World," when Europeans came to the Americas.  It's also a delicious (and deliciously easy!) soup.  Unfortunately the ingredients are mostly summer vegetables and summer is not a time when a bowl of hot soup is particularly attractive.  I wonder how well zucchini freezes.  We'll have to give it a try this summer!
