BEST Copycat Zuppa Toscana Recipe

Really yummy and warm. I did some swaps as I used what I had on hand: ground chicken instead of sausage, spinach instead of kale, baby red potatoes instead of russet, half and half instead of full cream. I also cooked the bacon separately and sprinkled on top and didn't use the grease.

Love this recipe. I used to make it in the crockpot, but stovetop is the way to go.

A++

It turned out good. I decided to add a little bit more bacon and potatoes to give it more substance. Added an additional cup of broth as well to help balace out the extra ingredients that was added. I feel like the fat from the bacon was a little much so I will definitely cut that in half the next time I make the dish. I would make again.

Was good but veeeeery rich. Would definitely drain the fat more and possibly cut the amount of meat down in half and replace it with more potato.

Amazing!!

Swapped sweet potato for russet potatoes (My kids hate white potatoes). Added some leftover rotisserie chicken and some navy beans. This is my husband's favorite soup, hoping the kids love it too. Fingers crossed.

Better than the restaurant and makes at least 6-7 servings, loved it!

Used hot Italian sausage links in place of ground sausage.

I used 1/2 hot Italian sausage and1/2 smoked sausage

Don't add any extra salt. The sausage and bacon already add a lot of sodium to the dish.

Added Parmesan, because how could you not?

Aunt Brenda and Jenny made it for us!

We use the cream off of a can of coconut milk to make this dairy free. Delicious!

I changed how I made it after the onions and garlic were cooked. I added the kale to saute and get a vibrant color then added the chicken stock and water brought the sausage, bacon, kale, onion/garlic, chicken stock/water to a boil once boiling added potatoes then followed the rest of the instructions. Felt like the potatoes had the flavor of the food a little better.

I used 8 cups of chicken broth, otherwise not everything was covered.

Typically use half and half instead of heavy cream

Love this recipe. I have to triple recipes to make sure I have leftovers and this one didn't disappoint. I will get another meal.

Use 6 cups broth

Double the recipe. Soup is better the 2nd day. If you can keep it that long! I have never had any complaints serving this soup!

Family favorite!

Really good ! Made in the instant pot in less then 10 min .

I thought 4 large potatoes was too much, unless you want it super chunky. It still tastes great though.
