I used to do backup at Olive Garden. That consists of making all the soups, baking breadsticks, making the sauces, and prepping the meat and veggies. This is 99% spot on! The only differences: they use crushed red pepper instead of cayenne pepper and they mandolin slice the potatoes instead of cutting them into chunks. Other than that, I'm having flashbacks! lol

[@jprevatt]

Okay, Lil Miss Sous Chef 😂🎉

[@duskburner]

I can confirm this! I work BOH

[@cindyforeman6992]

11/2 t. red pepper flakes is tooooo much. I used 1 t. and it is spicy.. Adding 1T to the cream didn't thicken the soup at all... feel like I wasted a lot of good ingredients for a mediocre ( at best) soup! Won't be making it again😢

[@francesstuber2040]

The dip they bring for bread sticks Joe is that made please

[@cindymaun8952]

I love Zuppa Toscana. I make it at home. I use spinach instead of kale (hate). Soup is delicious!!!

[@m.layfette6249]

As someone who is lactose intolerant, I'm LOVING how these dishes can be made (Better) at home. Bella!

[@goggleuser12]

Hi, what would you use in place of the heavy cream?

[@m.layfette6249]

@@goggleuser12 There are Vegan options out there. Country Crock makes a lot of Plant Based butters and creams. What I've done in the past is create my own "heavy cream" using vegan cream cheese and broth. I'm not a complete vegan, just lactose intolerant.

"They don't have to be perfect. These are HOMEMADE." 😂😂😂❤ We are kindred spirits!

[@damagedave]

Dressing is wishbone Italian with Romano and eggs. Source: ten years in the OG kitchen. I’ve made enough to cover the earth. Salad mix is Dole, Same as Your local grocer. I know you don’t believe me, nobody does Also the “butter” on the breadsticks is country crock, which the only time I’d ever recommend margarine for anything

[@clevergirlhikes]

Once again, you make something yummy and delicious looking that I could never eat, but I get satisfaction from watching. Thanks, Nicole!!

[@janeadorno9979]

Nicole!! I do this for my family all the time with their Pasta Fagioli. Homemade bread sticks, copy cat salad and soup. So fun!

[@j.r.cherry3575]

Watched this to see your twist on this soup. The only difference between yours and ours is, we use spinach instead of (shudder) kale. The trick on the breadsticks will be incorporated on our next cook. Awesome job girl.

[@paulasiefert2059]

I make that soup frequently, but your idea for the bread sticks is perfect!

[@denny6106]

When I make this soup I add a few shredded carrots just for a little color. And of course some Parmesan cheese.

[@rachelbee7921]

Nicole, you're my hero!! ❤👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@michaelhostetter3039]

The “Zappa Tuscana” is not really my fave but the Minestrone, pasta fagioli, or chicken gnocchi would be awesome if you could make them please. The breadsticks and salad are always a fabulous choice! Thank you so much!

[@nunyabeezwax9991]

My fav soup. If you are able to grow your own veggies- the quality is even better! Love your videos!!

[@KarenAllen-pp3yl]

That is my favorite thing to get at Olive Garden! Hands down the best! ❤

[@abiering]

That’s what I get every time I go. Thank you so much!!

[@sarahdumas2140]

We always go just for this.

[@peggymann925]

Yummy! Thank you Nicole, I'll be making this soup!

[@donnamullins2089]

Looks perfect just like Olive Garden. Thanks Nicole for the bread stick hack. Glad you rewarded yourself.

[@dianejohanson98]

I always get the Pasta fagioli, salad and breadsticks! Yum! Since all the restaurants have raised their prices so high, sadly we can’t go there very often anymore! Also after the pandemic they discontinued some dishes that I really liked. I miss their food.

[@Cookingwithapril]

I love to make the Zuppa Tuscans soup. Oh I am so ready for cooler weather.

[@missymitekite]

Oh, my gosh!!! Yummmm!!!! Can't wait to make this!

Retailers are now selling Olive Garden's dressings on the shelf 🎉 I've seen them so far at Walmart & SaveALot stores. Might be Aldis too, haven't checked that one

[@lindabradford9591]

Can you make their gnocchi soup recipe please?

[@brt7721]

There are a lot of copycats for it online!

[@aileensmith3062]

Never eaten at Olive Garden before and most likely never will either. Loved the fact and you not peeling the potatoes. As far as the bread sticks we always start from scratch. Going to save the soup recipe and try it once it cools off more here!

[@milome305]

Hello Nicole. I Love OG. What dressing did you put on the salad? Please respond to me. Also, can you make the other 2 soups???

[@tonkabear2369]

@ 5:43 you can see the label. It’s Olive Garden salad dressing. I know they sell at Costco not sure where else.

[@lindabradford9591]

I've bought the OG dressing at the grocery store!

[@chriswalls6667]

Nicole I make this soup in the instant pot and it gets devoured like it’s the best thing ever eaten.

[@emilybalzano792]

My favorite spup!soup!! Thank you.

[@TeresaPeel-n2c]

Perfect idea thanks 😅

[@ELCPAKansas]

@nicolemcmom this looks super duper good. Really good. Question: Tide or War eagle? I'm from Kansas but still curious. ;)

[@paulettejohnson2754]

Zuppa.. been making it for years !! ❤

[@tchinson60]

My mom and I made the salad at home, too, but we used hearts of romaine lettuce or a blend, instead of iceberg. Seemed closer to what OG salad is.

[@mr.c2485]

So good!

[@christiannaaguilar714]

Love it Ummm. Wah 😚😘😋

[@rhondalaflamme462]

Nicole love your recipes Where did you get your T- shirt….very nice, looks better than most T-shirts…..

[@jdghormley]

I use cauliflower instead of potatoes and my family loves it.

[@pamelacrowell2007]

I can't eat the sausage (spices) so PLEASE PLEASE make the gnocchi soup!!❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@stephaniebriggs9346]

I can eat the sausage but I second make the Gnocchi soup, too!!

[@marieb9926]

I love zuppa Toscana, but I agree that the other soups at OG deserve love too!

[@oceandinner]

Why don’t you make the 🙄🙄🙄 recipe yourself. There are Recipe all over the internet ,and TikTok.Besides she copy-cats recipes from other ppl off social media.

[@fallenangel1049]

Don’t use the spicy sausage use a mild breakfast sausage, thats what I do….so so good….less spice

[@cindymaun8952]

Use ground beef instead of sausage.

[@Michelle-Gx3jq]

Do you deliver, Nicole😂 That all looked soooo good❤

[@Rosie-mz4bx]

Delish you forgot the endless parmesan cheese😊

[@LazarickHomestead]

my fave is the pasta fagoul soup.. (probably spelled it wrong) but I would love if you did that one!

[@ThroughHisEyes444]

Great job❣️ but I’m making my own non GMO salad dressing!

[@joannconway8919]

Just missing the grind of Parm…. But will be making for sure!!!

[@katefish3754]

Score !!!!! Thank You !!!!!

[@barbararice1196]

Looks delish! Our OG is absolutely awful, so home cooked for me.

Hi there how are you doing today I always watched your show on KZbin channel as well

[@MJBUSY1-MicheleJ]

Same with the salad... But i always get minestrone soup!!

[@goggleuser12]

Lactose intolerant here. Does anyone have a suggestion for a sub for the heavy cream in the Zuppa??

[@tomsparks6099]

I ate at OG once. That was enough for me to know what real Italian food is not.

[@ElizabethCoulter-h4u]

Aldi has a creamy like Italian salad dressing that tastes just like Olive Garden dressing

[@absolutechad8805]

Yes!

[@debrawashington5222]

Have I told you that you are awesome!! U R awesome!

[@ladyjanelja]

Make Shops Tuscan a often😋

[@mariejeannie]

What did you use to dress the salad?

[@ireneroy8820]

Yes please?!

[@lindabradford9591]

​@ireneroy8820 it's Olive Garden salad dressing at the grocery store and maybe even Walmart.

[@robinbarnett5215]

Gimmie it all!!!❤❤❤

[@lifewellloved0204]

What was the salad dressing?

[@tibbytx1]

Flour is not needed. Just mash the potatoes and few times to thicken the soup.

[@Amanda-rv8to]

I will use the idea for dinner but sub chicken and spinach in the soup( we don't care for sausage orkale).

[@cindyburns7667]

I always order that soup, yours looks better than theirs.

[@johnkonstantatos2509]

To me Ms Nicole is like fondue cheese with broccoli and carrots lol

[@Zekesquad]

You forot the never-ending parmesan 😅

[@sarahsweetie3982]

What kind of pickled papers did she use 🤔

[@tchinson60]

She used pepperoncini peppers

[@sarahsweetie3982]

Thanks ​@@tchinson60

4:30 What you call chunks, I call dumplings. 😁

Ah….YUM!

Saw a foreign exchange student from Italy, one of his classmates, took him to Olive Garden, he said the food it taste nothing like Italian food from his home.

[@sheryl7837]

No pepperoncinis! 🤢But I love everything else!

Don’t forget the cheese!

Where's the 9,000 pounds of hand grated cheese?

[@debbiezullo7056]

I was thinking exactly as you were. They could tell us when to stop and I think how long could you last hands last grading that cheese?
