Zuppa Toscana Olive Garden’s Copycat Recipe!

Hey Guy’s! Welcome back to my channel. In today’s video I show you how to make a copycat version of The Olive Garden’s Zuppa Toscana Soup. Also known as Sausage and Potato Soup.
I wanted to make this soup for Monty so I looked on Pinterest because I knew they would have a recipe for it. This is Monty’s favorite dish at The Olive Garden.
When he tasted it he said that it was a dead ringer of the original and that I should make it more often.
Big compliment coming from that meat and potatoes guy 😃
I hope you guys will give this recipe a try!
Zuppa Toscana Soup:
1, 1 Pound Roll of Jimmy Deans Hot Sausage
4 Large Russet Potatoes, washed peeled and cut in whatever size you like
1 Medium Onion, chopped
2 Cloves Fresh Garlic, chopped
1/2 Cup Crumbled Bacon
2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
1, 32 Ounce Carton Chicken Broth
1 Tablespoon Dried Parsley Flakes
1/4 Teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
1 Cup Heavy Cream
1 Bunch Kale, washed, stems removed and torn into bite size pieces
In a medium size boiler pot brown sausage then remove from the pot. If you are using raw bacon add it to the boiler pot and cook it. Once done remove from the pot.
If you are using bacon pieces add them once the sausage is done and don’t remove the sausage from the pot. Let bacon bits cook a little then add the onions and let cook for 5 minutes. Add chopped garlic during the last minute. Add cornstarch and mix together so that there are no lumps.
Next add chicken broth, potatoes, red pepper flakes and parsley flakes. Once the potatoes are fork tender add heavy cream and kale. Cook until kale is wilted or done to your likeness. Enjoy!

Thank you so much

This really looks tasty! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for visiting!

Loved your quick version in one pot. The only item I excluded was the cornstarch because Olive Garden version is loose and I added a little salt and pepper.

Hello Jackie. I can't wait to try this soup. Where can I find the bowls and plates? They are beautiful.

[@JackiesSouthernSoul]

I’ve had these for years. I got them from Bed Bath and Beyond.

I love salad but I've only tried a little kale in smoothies.

[@JackiesSouthernSoul]

The kale is what makes this soup stand out. It’s delicious with kale but of course you can use spinach and see how it turns out for you. Make it your own😉

[@jodawkins9177]

It looks so yummy, that’s my husbands favorite soup 🥣 at Olive Garden, he usually gets the all you can eat “soup & salad” 😊

[@JackiesSouthernSoul]

It's so good! Monty loved it. I’ve made it again since first airing this video and it’s been a hit each time.

[@joannmoore1358]

Should always add a teaspoon of olive oil when frying your ingredients

[@hippygypsy777]

Can you use spinach rather than kale? OR is kale good after stewing in this dish?

[@TaylorsFSCooking]

That looks really good, but I'm usually not a fan of creamy cheesy soups. My family is though. People are definitely sleeping on dept stores for cookware. I've got my bug pot from Burlington, and I love it.

[@JackiesSouthernSoul]

Thank you Taylor. Make sure to let us know if your family liked it if you decide to make this for them. God Bless!

[@jimmygriego6882]

Where's the red pepper flakes that should be frying with the sausage

[@JackiesSouthernSoul]

I guess you missed the part of the video where I added the red pepper flakes after I add the potatoes right after I added the parsley 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@jodawkins9177]

What did your husband think of the soup, my husband is curious on his thoughts 🤔

[@JackiesSouthernSoul]

Hey Jo! Monty loved it and said that it tasted just like the original. He told me that I should make it often.

[@jodawkins9177]

@@JackiesSouthernSoul Great, so on Monty’s recommendation I will attempt to make it for Dean 👍🏾🥣🤩

[@cookingwithkay9259]

This is very similar to Italian spinach soup

[@AngelaHugginsmakesdolls]

Why don't you prepare all of the things before doing the video

[@JackiesSouthernSoul]

Because I don’t choose to. It’s called a cooking video for that reason so you can WATCH!

[@AngelaHugginsmakesdolls]

​@@JackiesSouthernSouli was just saying because your things look so nice it would be cool if you did that. I'm sorry if you felt I was criticizing you. I wasn't I enjoyed your video😢
