1. 1In a large pot bring stock to a slow simmer.
2. 2Turn heat to medium/medium-low (you don't want to over-cook the veggies while you are chopping the remaining ingredients).
3. 3While the stock is coming to a simmer, dice sweet potato and carrots into small enough pieces so that you can get multiple pieces on each spoonful.
4. 4Once stock has reached a simmer, add sweet potato and carrots.
5. 5Cook for 3-4 minutes.
6. 6Meanwhile dice zucchini.
7. 7Add to pot after sweet potato and carrots have cooked for about 3-4 minutes.
