If you love Olive Garden's Zuppa Toscana but are vegan or milk-allergic, this recipe is for YOU! It's the perfect comfort food on a cold winter day or a great addition to your Meatless Monday meal rotation or Veganuary!

I JUST had this for the first time over the holidays! My sister in-law made it and it was SO GOOD! Well.. The non vegan version haha. This looks like a great vegan version! Keep it up!

Thanks! It is a great soup - vegan or not 😊

Oh wow! This soup turned out incredible Maggie! I don't think I'd miss any meat at all with a recipe like this. I imagine the coconut cream idea would also be a wonderful alternative for a nice texture. One thing you could do to save your lens from steaming up is set up a low, gentle fan nearby to push the steam away. My partner's done this many times with the cooking videos he's filmed at work. Nicely done with this one Maggie!

Thanks, Susan! I wasn't anticipating THAT much steam! 😂 I thought my camera was plenty high enough. I will definitely prepare next time. Hope you had a wonderful holiday, friend ☺️

The ingredients look spot on. I make it similar to this but use pancetta and Italian sausage as we are vegan. Keep up the good work!
