Submitted by Melissa Jayde

"This soup is easy to make and suprisingly tasty. I got this recipe from my grandmother, who uses the larger zucchini from her garden for soups. I like to eat it with crackers or bread."

• 2 lbs pork loin
• 2 -3 zucchini

2. Cut pork into small chunks or strips. Put the chunks into a large pot over medium heat. Let them cook through, then reduce heat and add the chopped zucchini, and sprinkle generously with garlic powder. You may need water to add to the pot to keep the mixture from burning on the bottom.

4. Salt and Pepper to taste.
