Inspired By A Restaurant Favorite
This recipe was created and inspired by the Olive Garden favorite. I mean what’s not to love, it’s the perfect soup to dip those tasty garlic breadsticks in. Really, don’t pretend like you never did it! And if you really haven’t, while your health is probably better for it, you definitely missed out! It was a tasty combo and one that was a go-to for the lunch soup and salad combo. That said, I think we can probably all agree that a healthier and Paleo version is a great way to recreate this gem. And Justin was kind enough to make it with cauliflower rather than potatoes, so I can enjoy it too! I love potatoes and while they are definitely Paleo approved, I don’t tolerate them well. Our healthy zuppa toscana is Paleo, Whole30 compliant, potato-free and dairy-free.
Dairy-Free + Delicious
Sometimes we miss dairy. It’s true. However, we’ve found lots of ways to achieve the creamy goodness without the added dairy. In this healthy zuppa toscana we used coconut milk, which we’ve found to be a great substitute for dairy in lots of recipes. Coconut milk is thick and super creamy like whole milk, and when combined with other spices and garlic like we’ve done in this recipe, you can’t even really taste the coconut flavor. We also love that ditching the dairy allows us to make this soup Whole30 compliant.
A Little Bit Smoky, Spicy And Filled With Textures
I love the flavors of this soup! They’re just so balanced and hearty, and the textures are equally amazing. I love the ground Italian sausage, cauliflower and wilted kale. Add a little bacon, and life is pretty much complete. It’s smoky, a little spicy and creamy good! Our healthy zuppa toscana is really just packed with goodness, and a total comfort food recipe.
