Trillian's Zucchini and Potato soup

4 cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 a large yellow onion, diced
3 tablespoons of olive oil
1 carrot, diced
1 stalk of celery, diced
2 medium zucchini, diced
1 14-oz can of diced tomatoes, with juices
(or 2 large roma tomatoes diced and 1/3 cup of tomato sauce)
2 medium potatoes, diced
Salt and pepper to taste
Parsley to taste
4 bay leaves*

Saute garlic and onions for a couple of minutes in a large saucepan. Add celery, carrots and zucchini and saute a couple of minutes longer. Add tomatoes and potatoes then fill pot with water. Add seasonings and bring to a boil. Lower heat to medium and simmer for 45 minutes.

I like to serve this with cooked tubetti, shells or mini penne pasta and top with lots of parmesan cheese.

*You can also replace the bay leaves with fresh basil leaves. Both add wonderful flavor.
