I’ve had a craving for this soup and a big pot simmering sounded perfect today. If you haven’t attempted to make it yourself YES, it’s as good if not better than the Olive Garden’s.
Spicy Tuscan Soup
1 pound spicy breakfast sausage
1 whole medium onion, diced
2 bacon slices, diced {I add a little more}
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 whole potatoes, diced
1 quart warm water
3 cubes chicken bouillon
1/4 bunch kale, roughly chopped
1/2 cup heavy cream {that is a little rich for me, so I only put about a 1/4}
Salt and pepper, to taste
Preparation:
Crumble sausage into a Dutch oven and heat over medium-heat until cooked through. Drain off the grease and set the sausage aside.
Add onions and bacon into the Dutch oven. Reduce heat to medium and cook until onions are clear. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and cut into 1/4″ slices. Add warm water, bouillon cubes and potatoes to the Dutch oven and simmer for 15-20 minutes until potatoes are almost done.
Add remaining ingredients as well as the sausage and simmer for 5 more minutes. Let cool and serve with warm garlic bread. Yum!!!
Enjoy!
