HELPFUL TIPS TO MAKE OLIVE GARDEN® COPYCAT ZUPPA TOSCANA:

• I like to use Russet potatoes in this recipe.  They give it a nice flavor and create the perfect texture.
• If you're not a fan of kale, you can substitute spinach in this recipe.
• We like to cook our bacon in the oven to keep the bacon smell from getting all over the house, but the stove top works too!
• Although the recipe calls for hot Italian sausage, you can cut down on the spice by using mild Italian sausage.
• Thicker soups are preferred at our house, so I smash some of the potatoes before adding the kale.  If you like your soup to have a thinner texture, skip this step.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO MAKE OLIVE GARDEN® COPYCAT ZUPPA TOSCANA:

• 4-quart Stock Pot- Great for soups, roasts, frying... I use this all the time.
• Ladle- This is necessary for dishing up soup. Like, how can you even serve soup without one?
• Cheese Grater- As much as I love buying shredded cheese because I'm lazy, fresh grated cheese melts down so much better and creates a smoother soup.

Enjoy!

Olive Garden Copycat Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana

Olive Garden Copycat Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana

Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana is the ultimate copycat recipe of the classic Olive Garden soup made quick and easy in a pressure cooker. Sausage, potatoes and fresh kale in a perfectly seasoned rich and creamy broth make this Tuscan Italian-inspired soup a hit from the first bite.

 

We are so excited to be partnering with our friends at Jones Dairy Farm to bring you a rich and hearty soup recipe. It is the perfect comfort food and perfect for everyday, starring one of my favorite ingredients: All Natural Pork Breakfast Sausage Roll!

This is one of the staple items in our kitchen. With Jones Dairy Farm you know you are getting great quality and incredible flavor. And this sausage roll is so versatile I use it in everything from breakfast to dinner and everything in between.

Jones' All Natural Pork Breakfast Sausage Roll has only 4 ingredients!!! For 130 years they have been making it with just pork, water, salt and spices. It is truly a great protein that I can feel good about feeding to my family.

What is Zuppa Toscana?

Literally Zuppa Toscana is "Tuscan soup" or "soup in the style of Tuscany". Seasoned sausage, potatoes and fresh baby kale in a perfectly seasoned rich and creamy broth made this Tuscan-inspired soup a hit from the first bite. I love stick-to-your-ribs kind of soups.

I mean, if I am going to have soup as a meal it needs to feel like a meal. So I upped the fixin’s with big chunks of russet potatoes and lots of tasty Jones sausage!

This is a meal that the whole family will love—restaurant-style in the comfort of your own home!

How to Make Zuppa Toscana

This classic soup can be made on the stovetop, in a crockpot and now we have the easiest version yet, Zuppa Toscana in the Instant Pot.

With this soup, the Zuppa Toscana is built on the sausage. You start out by cooking the sausage, and then build the soup on top of it so it is an incredibly important component. It really makes a difference to start with great sausage!

It comes together in just 20 minutes and starts by sauteing the sausage right in the Instant Pot. Add your seasonings, potatoes and chicken stock. Cook for 8 minutes. Add the cream and kale. Cook for 2 minutes. Serve and enjoy!

Can I freeze Zuppa Toscana Soup

You can freeze this Zuppa Toscana. Make sure you let the soup come to room temperature and pack it up into portion size containers or one large container. Make sure you remember to leave about 1" at the top for expansion.

It is important to note that chunks of potatoes tend to break apart and have a grainy texture when reheated. If you are sensitive to texture you may want to skip freezing this soup.

Can I substitute spinach for the kale?

You can substitute traditional lacinato kale or spinach in this recipe. I love the tenderness of baby kale, so it is my favorite.

Can you make Zuppa Toscana in the Slow Cooker?

You can absolutely make this Zuppa Toscana in the Slow Cooker. Simply cook the sausage on the stovetop. Add the seasonings and stir. Then add the chicken stock to the pot and scrape the bits on the bottom of the pan.

Transfer sausage and broth to your slow cooker and add potatoes. Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8 hours. Remove 2 cups of potatoes and mash them. Return mashed potatoes to the slow cooker, add the cream and the baby kale. Stir until kale is wilted.

I will let you all know that you can pick up Jones Dairy Farm products at your local retailer.

The company’s products are distributed nationwide, so be sure to check out their product locator so see where you can pick some up.

If you’re looking for the breakfast sausage, it’s in the freezer section.

Helpful Tips to make Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana:

• You can substitute traditional lacinato kale or spinach in this recipe. I love the tenderness of baby kale, so it is my favorite.
• We love to serve with shredded Parmesan cheese.
•  Make Zuppa Toscana in the Slow Cooker. Simply cook the sausage on the stovetop. Add the seasonings and stir. Then add the chicken stock to the pot and scrape the bits on the bottom of the pan.Transfer sausage and broth to your slow cooker and add potatoes. Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8 hours. Remove 2 cups of potatoes and mash them. Return mashed potatoes to the slow cooker, add the cream and the baby kale. Stir until kale is wilted.

What you will need to make Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana:

• 6 quart Instant Pot – This is my favorite pressure cooker.
  
• Wooden Spatula- I find the best tool for breaking up ground meat is a wooden spatula. Whether I am cooking in a slow cooker, stovetop or in the Instant pot it is my top choice.

Enjoy!

Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana (Sausage & Potato Soup)

prep time: 2 minscook time: 20 minstotal time: 22 mins

Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana is the ultimate copycat recipe of the classic Olive Garden soup made quick and easy in a pressure cooker. Sausage, potatoes and fresh kale in a perfectly seasoned rich and creamy broth make this Tuscan Italian-inspired soup a hit from the first bite.

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• 2 (12 ounce) packages No-Sugar All Natural Pork Sausage Roll
• 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 6 cups chicken stock
• 6-8 medium russet potatoes, cut into 1/2" cubes
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 5 ounces baby kale

Instructions:

1. Turn the 6-quart Instant Pot to "Saute". Once you can feel the heat when you hold your hand above it, add olive oil and crumble in the sausage.
2. Cook, stirring occasionally and breaking up the sausage as desired (I like bigger chunks), until the sausage is cooked through, about 3-5 minutes. Drain excess the sausage drippings from the pan (if necessary).
3. Add the Italian seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, red pepper flakes and salt. Stir to combine.
4. Add the potatoes and pour in the chicken stock. Stir to combine and scrape the bits from the bottom of the pot.
5. Close the lid on the Instant Pot. Select "Manual" setting on the Instant Pot. Turn the pressure to high. Set timer for 8 minutes. Make sure the vent is closed.
6. When cook time is complete, quick-release pressure according to manufacturer's directions.
7. Use a slotted spoon to remove 2 cups of potatoes from the pot and place them in a bowl. Mash the potatoes and pour them back into the pot; this will help thicken the soup.
8. Add the cream and kale to the soup, and stir to combine. Continue cooking the soup until the kale is wilted and tender, about 3 more minutes.
9. Serve and enjoy!

DONNA'S NOTES

1. You can substitute traditional lacinato kale or spinach in this recipe. I love the tenderness of baby kale, so it is my favorite.
2. We love to serve with shredded Parmesan cheese.
3. Make Zuppa Toscana in the Slow Cooker. Simply cook the sausage on the stovetop. Add the seasonings and stir.

Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8 hours. Remove 2 cups of potatoes and mash them. Return mashed potatoes to the slow cooker, add the cream and the baby kale.

Copycat Olive Garden Salad and Dressing Recipe

Copycat Olive Garden Salad and Dressing Recipe

Our Copycat Olive Garden Salad is like the restaurant version, even the Olive Garden salad dressing! Skip eating out - make this recipe yourself! 

I am such a fan of Olive Garden that I knew I had to create a few of my favorite copycats to enjoy at home.

When you can't make it to the restaurant, you can always make this salad and copycat dressing for yourself.

And, have you had a chance to try my Olive Garden alfredo sauce? It's a scrumptious copycat recipe loaded with cheese, cream, and a special ingredient to really take it over the top.

Copycat Olive Garden Chicken Parmesano Vino Bianco recipe with a rich and creamy Parmesan white wine cream sauce so delicious it may transport you to Italy.

Olive Garden Copycat Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana is the ultimate copycat recipe of the classic Olive Garden soup made quick and easy in a pressure cooker.

Copycat Olive Garden Salad Ingredients

Olive Garden Salad is so amazing you may eat the salad and skip the meal. Now you can make your own salad dressing copycat recipe at home.

A crisp salad with a tart, sweet, and cheesy dressing will keep you coming back for more!

This Olive Garden Salad has chopped romaine lettuce, red onion, Roma tomatoes, Pepperoncini peppers, pitted olives, and seasoned garlic croutons (try these homemade croutons).

I prefer the crisp of the romaine hearts over the American salad blend, so I used romaine in the salad.

And, of course, what makes it truly special is the Olive Garden salad dressing on top.

The salad dressing is fabulously tart and sweet with creamy Romano cheese throughout. It is absolutely amazing. You are going to love it!

Tools needed

• Blender- You can use any blender, but I absolutely love this one! I use it for ice cream, smoothies, soups, my tomato sauce, and naturally this salad dressing.
• Salad Bowl- 
• Salad Tongs - These bamboo salad hands are my favorite
• Cheese grater - any will work but this is my go to

How to make Olive Garden Salad dressing?

Of course, this copycat Olive Garden salad wouldn't be complete without their signature dressing. 
Thankfully, it's very simple to make at home.

You only need a few simple ingredients to make this including mayonnaise, oil, Romano cheese, and a few seasonings.

If you prefer dressing to be yellow in color (like the original) add pinches of turmeric until it reaches the desired shade (thanks to a reader for the tip).

I left it out in the above photo.

Be sure to let the salad dressing sit in the refrigerator for a few hours before you use it.

This extra time lets the flavors meld. You won't believe the difference it makes.

How do I store leftover dressing?

The dressing will make enough for about four bowls of salad. You can store the leftovers in the refrigerator in a tightly sealed Mason jar.

They will last for about a week. That way, you can enjoy another salad again soon. Or, why not use it to marinate your chicken breasts? They taste amazing that way.

Frequently asked questions

What type of olives are in the Olive Garden salad?

The traditional salad at Olive Garden contains whole black olives. Buy them pitted to save time when preparing the salad.

Of course, you can always add in another type of olive if you prefer. But, black olives are traditional.

 

How many calories are in Olive Garden salad dressing?

The traditional Olive Garden salad dressing contains 80 calories per one fluid ounce. But, if you use the reduced-fat version of their dressing, it contains only 30 calories.

Either way, watch how much you add to this copycat Olive Garden salad because the calories can add up quickly.

What type of cheese do you use in Olive Garden salad?

I use Romano cheese when I make this recipe. But, I have heard from some people that they like to use Parmesan as well.

Please do not buy the powdered mixed cheese in the Italian section of your grocery store. Start with fresh Romano and grate it yourself using a handheld cheese grater.

It's an absolute must and really changes the flavor of the salad.

What should I serve with this salad?

My Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana is a delicious soup to serve along with this copycat salad recipe.

Or, why not enjoy it with a few thick slices of my simple Amish white bread recipe. My no-knead roasted garlic skillet bread would be another delicious option.

Enjoy!

But, you can easily serve it over gnocchi with chunks of fresh summer vegetables. Or, why not make a ham and ravioli bake start with frozen ravioli and chunks of ham.

There are lots of different ways you can serve this Alfredo sauce recipe.

How to make restaurant recipes at home 

One of the easiest ways to make restaurant recipes like my Olive Garden Alfredo Sauce is to experiment with your cooking.

If you have a favorite restaurant recipe you would like to create, just start with the basic recipe and adjust the seasonings and ingredients until you have matched their taste.

If you don't feel confident enough about your creative cooking ability, I have a lot of copycat restaurant recipes here that I've shared with you.

Try searching your favorite blogs to find the types of copycat recipes you're most interested in. Don't be afraid to make substitutions and see how you and your family like them.

You can always improve on your favorite restaurant's signature dishes.

 

Frequently asked questions

How do you keep Alfredo sauce creamy? 

One of the best things about this Olive Garden Alfredo Sauce is how creamy it is. If you are trying to replicate that at home, you will want to be sure that you use fresh Parmesan cheese.

Avoid using the powdered kind in the green cans. It won't melt as well and the recipe won't be as creamy as you remember it.

And, make sure that you don't overcook it.

Substitutes for heavy cream in Alfredo sauce 

While heavy cream is one of the things that helps make this Alfredo sauce what it is, there are a few possible substitutions.

You can try using soy milk with a dash of olive oil if you want a vegan option. Or, use Greek yogurt and milk combined.

Evaporated milk or milk and butter is another option that might work for you. Half and half will also work in a pinch if you need to substitute.

Storing leftovers 

If you have leftovers when you make my Olive Garden Alfredo Sauce, you should refrigerate them within two hours.

You can store the sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

 

Freezing the sauce 

If you want to freeze this, it will stay good in an airtight container for up to six months.

When it's time to reheat the frozen sauce, make sure you stir it well to prevent it from separating and curdling.

Don't rush, it's best reheated over low heat.

Uses for Alfredo sauce

I've discussed a few ways you can use this Alfredo sauce already, but here's a quick summary.

• Pasta sauce
• Pizza topping
• Soup base
• Cream topping for steamed vegetables
• Dip for bread sticks
• Add it to mac and cheese
• Chicken Florentine
• A substitute for gravy in your pot pie recipe

Enjoy!
