Zuppa Tuscana - Olive Garden

It is a very good soup and hits the spot on cold winter days. I've included this and a few other Olive Garden-inspired recipes on the site for all of our visitors that enjoy eating at the restaurant chain. In my opinion, making these recipes at home makes them even better than the ones you eat at the restaurant! :)Submitted by: MATIGEN

I start by sauteeing my onions ang garlic, then add butternut squash and sweet potato and sautee those up, then add each veggie and sautee to bring out flavour, then add a can of diced tomatoes, tomato paste, broth and cooked noodles (I boil them separately). Yummy winter recipe. - 10/29/14
