Low-Point Tomato Zucchini Soup

My husband and I love going out for lunch. However, doing this too many times causes you to use a bit too many of your daily allotted points, leaving very little for a delicious supper. Got it covered with this super savory soup for only .5 points a cup! Awesome! Going to add this recipe to my list of "make often, especially after high-point lunches!"
