Ingredients:  
6 plum tomatoes
4 tsp. olive oil, divided

2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cans (about 15 oz. each) cannellini beans, rinsed and drained

Directions:
Preheat broiler. Coat baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.

Cut tomatoes in half lengthwise; place, cut side up, on baking pan. Drizzle with 2 tsp. oil; broil 12 minutes or until well browned. Let tomatoes cool slightly. Transfer tomatoes to food processor; process using on/off pulsing action or until coarsely chopped.

Meanwhile, heat remaining 2 tsp. oil in large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onion 3 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir 1 minute. Add beans, zucchini, broth, tomatoes and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, 8 minutes or just until zucchini is tender. Stir in basil and pepper.

Personal Notes:
I added 1 pkg. mushrooms to the onion to sauté. Could also add celery and carrots if you have them. I added one bouillon cube (beef or chicken) your choice and 1/4 tsp. more salt. If you have leftover chicken, you could add that as well. Then it is not vegetarian, but a healthy, hearty light supper.
This would be good on one of those cold, wet nights like we have been having recently. Use this on a "no meat" meal.
