Ingredients

1 1/2 cups chopped mixed fresh herbs, such as marjoram, thyme, basil, mint, arugula, and Italian parsley
2 medium zucchini, cut into 1/2 inch dice
8 ounces green beans, tops and tails removed and cut into 1-inch lengths
1 pound russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
2 ripe tomatoes, peeled and coarsely chopped
1 spanish onion, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 clove garlic, crushed
Coarse salt
2 (1-inch) thick slices Italian peasant bread, torn into small pieces
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

In a large pot, combine 1 cup of the herbs, zucchini, green beans, potatoes, tomatoes, onion, pepper flakes, garlic, and 8 cups of cold water. Add salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, covered, until the potatoes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
Add bread, and cook, stirring, with a wooden spoon, until the bread has broken down and thickened the soup, about 10 minutes. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup herbs; season with salt and pepper.
Ladle soup into bowls and drizzle with olive oil. Serve immediately.
