    CROCKPOT ZUPPA TOSCANA: Easy Recipe for the Most Delicious Italian Sausage, Potato & Kale Soup



    CROCKPOT ZUPPA TOSCANA: Easy Recipe for the Most Delicious Italian Sausage, Potato & Kale Soup

    There’s nothing like a hot bowl of soup to warm you up on a cold winter day, and this Crockpot Zuppa Toscana is perfect for that. It’s a creamy potato soup with Italian sausage and kale that is so hardy and delicious, you’ll actually want to eat it year-round! I’m sure you’ve seen other Olive Garden Copycat recipes out there, but THIS one, in my opinion, is the very best. Read on for the full recipe.

    Crockpot Zuppa Toscana

    6 large potatoes, cut in bite-size cubes
    1 lb. ground hot Italian sausage
    1 bunch fresh kale, cut bite-size
    1/2 white onion, chopped
    3 cloves garlic, minced
    32 oz. chicken broth
    16 oz. heavy cream
    1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
    salt & pepper to taste

    Cook sausage in a frying pan until brown. Add in chopped onion & garlic and continue frying until onion is translucent. Transfer sausage mixture into crockpot and set to Low. Add potatoes and chicken broth and continue to cook on Low for 5-6 hours. Pour in heavy cream, kale, and parmesan cheese and mix well. Season with salt and pepper, and allow to cook another 30 minutes, until kale is tender.

    I hope you enjoy this Zuppa Toscana as much as I do. Thank you for checking out this video and for giving it a Thumbs Up & Subscribing to this channel.

      I've made this many times. If you cook a pack of bacon ( add half after potatoes and a sprinkle on top of finished ) it makes a world of difference. Also add cracked pepper too after potatoes (omg) fantastic. I also use mild Italian sausage and add crushed red pepper flakes so i can adjust the spiciness. Thank you for sharing

      This is an excellent recipe. I chop up some bacon and add about 1/2 pound of bacon to this recipe. I also don't peel the potatoes, just scrubbed and washed, then cut up into small chunks. I noticed that the poster locks the lid on the crockpot. This should NOT be done while cooking. The ONLY time you lock the lid is when transporting it.

      I had bone-in ham leftovers, so I threw it in the crockpot, covered with water to make a stock, and added some chicken bouillon. I made hot Italian sausage from ground turkey and followed your recipe for the rest. A couple hours left but the broth tastes AMAZING!! Can't wait to try it out 😁

      I've been making a variation on this for years, but it's been slipping in our opinion of it. This and another video has the kale being added later — we add it first. Going to try putting it in last, next time. My wife also only uses one potato — our Irish ancestors are crying! Still, I think six may be too many? The most I have used was four. I like to use at least 2, 3 if they're smaller. Also, I use bacon, but I've been reading that the original recipe doesn't include it, and that may be making it more greasy than it should be.

      Also, I love that fish turner you use. I use one very similar to it. I got the idea from my mother's kitchen, she had a very old one and after moving out, I felt something was missing in my own kitchen. Went to visit and saw it, and realized immediately. Many years later, I saw she no longer had hers. She said it got old, she had to throw it out, and no store carries it anymore. I immediately opened my Amazon app and ordered her the same two (they come like that) that I bought. Neither of us cook fish, but it's so good for so many things. Way more useful than a straight flipper/turner or bowl scraper, due to the angle. Also, I'm glad someone else mentioned locking the slow cooker — it isn't a pressure cooker. My wife does the same thing and refuses to change. It hasn't hurt anything. There is a vent on the lid. I think we have the same slow cooker, too.
