This delicious homemade Zuppa Toscana soup recipe is a fantastic copycat of the very popular menu item at the Olive Garden. But in my opinion, it is the best. Our very picky eater, Cami, even enjoyed it.
INTRODUCTION TO CROCK POT ZUPPA TOSCANA SOUP
Our version of this classic featured pancetta instead of bacon. This gave our heavy cream and chicken-based broth a kick along with the Italian sausage.
The result was a very hearty soup, perfect for a chilly day. If you love this homemade Zuppa Toscana soup recipe, then consider making it for your next tailgating party
COOKING THIS CROCK POT ZUPPA TOSCANA SOUP RECIPE
Start this dish off by browning the meats. Be sure not to dispose of the leftover grease. There is a lot of aromatic flavors there. You don’t want to lose that.
Combine all of the ingredients into a crock-pot, stir and set to low. This soup will need to cook for several hours so be patient and try to multitask by doing other errands. Take advantage of the time.
