Drain mixture well and then add to potato mixture in pot. Add all other vegetables, beans, and peppers. Cover and cook at a low simmer for about 20 minutes or until zucchini is tender. Taste. Add salt, pepper, and fresh cilantro as desired. Serve in big bowls sprinkled with pepper jack or sharp cheddar cheese.

This soup is just okay. I found it to be a bit bland, and the texture was a bit too thick for my taste.
