1 ½ cups shredded roasted chicken meat (skin removed)

1 zucchini, diced finely

About 6 tablespoons grated Parmesan or Romano cheese

1. In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and sauté 5 minutes. Add garlic, carrot and celery. Sauté an additional 5 minutes.

2. Stir in tomatoes, basil, rosemary, salt and pepper. Simmer 5 minutes.

3. Add broth, water and pasta. Simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally so the pasta doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan. Check pasta for doneness.

4. Add chicken and zucchini. Turn heat to medium-low and cook 5 minutes.

5. Sprinkle the top of each serving of soup with cheese and serve.
