There is a close family friend named Allison that I remember visiting and playing with her kids when I was young and she would make Toscana soup. Her and my mom have been friends for years. Recently they decided to go to culinary school together and become catering partners. I work hand in hand with my mom on her share of the catering jobs and her partner Allison does the other half. Both of them have published their own cookbooks and are excellent cooks. I love when I get to cater events with them because they help me to learn new tricks in the kitchen and to become a better cook.

This Toscana zuppa recipe is Allison and she made it for a wedding that we did recently. It is one of her all time favorite soups. It does have a little kick to it I love a good flavor kick. If you were serving it for your kids and family or someone who can’t handle much heat I would make sure that you use mild sausage and reduce the amount of crushed red pepper.

What is Toscana Zuppa?

  • Toscana Zuppa is a Tuscan Soup that is made with Italian sausage and tons of other yummy ingredients to give it lots of flavor. In Italy it is known as “Minestra di Pane” which means “Bread Soup”. You might recognize this on the menu at Olive Garden and this is the perfect copycat recipe for the Olive Garden Toscana Zuppa.
