This soup is low calorie compared to other homemade soups. It has great flavor and is filling! The whole wheat lasagna noodles were hard to find, so I used whole wheat penne and it was fine! I added the whole box, which soaked up some of the fluid, so mine turned out thicker than soup, but I really liked it like that! The zucchini was a nice touch! I did need some salt and pepper, as it was a tad bland. If I made it again, I would use Chicken Stock and a tomato sauce with more flavor - I used traditional and it wasn't enough.
