    No pork on my plate so I used organic Italian chicken sausage and 90/10 ground beef and oregano red crushed pepper. And... I happen to love the crunch of the kale stems and potatoe skins on adds to the texture and body Thanks for sharing you version.

    I really like your enhanced recipe as it becomes obvious how much more flavor this recipe brings to the soup. I use Pecorino Romano and Parmesan cheese wedges for all cooking and these cheeses will impart their own wonderful additional flavor and Umami. I prefer your cubed potatoes as they are a perfect fit for a tablespoon and are more substantial that flat, thin pieces. I cannot wait to make this soup as I enjoy Olive Garden's in a pinch, but I'm sure yours will be fantastic!

      I made Zuppa Toscana today and it was wonderful Lenny! The flavors were much more rich and delicious than the watered down Olive Garden version. My wife said its a keeper!

    Your soup looks absolutely yummy! I love the slices of unpeeled russet potatoes in Olive Garden’s soup. I also think it’s just a preference. That’s what I do when I make it. ( I buy a few packages of sweet Italian sausage and freeze it in 3 link packages, it’s just enough for most of the recipes I add it to. ❤️ ( just my husband and I home) keep your yummy recipes coming! I always learn something in every recipe you post! ❤️

      Thank you so much. I like it when the potatoes are with a skin sometimes, but they way they cut them, i think, is wrong. More recipes will be on the way

    Being italian I can say if you put heavy cream in any soup in Tuscany or in Italy in general you are going to get a life sentence

    Where do you get chicken bones? We do not have butcher in our town. What can be a substitute?

      If you have a bel-air or rayle’s store they can cut up the whole chicken for you to use in soup remove the meat when it’s done leave the bones for the stock.

    Ok, 4-6 hrs for the stock. Another 2 hours for the soup. Congrats, you're now at 8 hours!

    Why is Olive Garden so huge if people don't like it? Millions of people go there. I've tried others that say "this is the best way".
    I still love Olive Garden's better. Sorry
