Directions:Add Zuchini to the pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer covered for 20 minutes. In a bowl gently whisk (don’t beat because we don’t want to add to much air to mixture) 3 eggs with 3 level tablespoons of freshly grated Pecorino Romano cheese + 1 tablespoon of finely chopped Italian Parsley + ½ tsp of salt and ¼ tsp of pepper Turn down heat to low. Slowly add egg mixture to heated soup. After mixture clumps cook on medium heat stirring gently with a fork – about 3 minutes.
