Instructions
- In a medium pan over medium-high heat, saute the onion and garlic for 1 minute. Add zucchini and fideo noodles and saute until the noodles become a very light brown (1 to 2 minutes).
- Add broth, cumin, tomatoes, and tomato sauce and thoroughly combine.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and let simmer for 10 minutes, or until noodles have softened.

Notes
- Adjust the texture: We quite like the chunky texture of unblended chopped tomatoes. However, for a more traditional sopita recipe, blend the tomatoes, onion, garlic, and 1 cup of broth into a puree, then strain it into the pan with the remaining broth.
- Fresh vs. canned tomatoes: We highly recommend using fresh tomatoes in the summer. Out of season, canned tomatoes are fine.
- Season to taste: Taste the soup before serving and adjust the amount of cumin, plus add salt and black pepper to taste.
