Appetizers / Soups / Salads Recipes (Most Popular)
I came up with this to satisfy a craving for the normally really rich and creamy soup. Instead of using a thick, creamy base, I wanted the broccoli to be the main component. You can make this soup really smooth or more chunky, or anywhere in between. This is healthy, yummy, easy, and very quick!
This is reduced fat, reduced calorie version of my favorite soup from the Olive Garden, Zuppa Toscana! It's a hearty, spicy, creamy soup with sausage, potatoes and kale. By using lean turkey sausage, skipping the heavy cream, and making sure to add tons of kale, the calories are slashed without losing the flavor. All ingredients are approximations and guidelines, and can easily be increased or reduced to your preference. I also usually add some seasonings, like fresh or dried herbs or red pepper for extra spice, but these are optional, since the sausage is usually already seasoned. Please feel free to give suggestions for improvement!
