OR Potato Cheese?

(goes GREAT with RUM!!)

I make an awesome Cheesy Potato soup. I can tell you how to make it, but I don't really have a recipe, so you would have to wing it.

Disclaimer: It is delish, but it is NOT diet food.

This seriously tastes just like the soup from Olive Garden.

Olive Garden Zuppa Toscana

Makes: 6-8 servings

INGREDIENTS
1 lb ground Italian sausage
1½ tsp crushed red peppers **
1 large diced white onion
4 Tbsp bacon pieces
2 tsp garlic puree
10 cups water
5 cubes of chicken bouillon
1 cup heavy cream
1 lb sliced Russet potatoes, or about 3 large potatoes
¼ of a bunch of kale

Sautee Italian sausage and crushed red pepper in pot. Drain excess fat, refrigerate while you prepare other ingredients.
In the same pan, sautee bacon, onions and garlic for approxiamtly 15 mins. or until the onions are soft.
Mix together the chicken bouillon and water, then add it to the onions, bacon and garlic. Cook until boiling.
Add potatoes and cook until soft, about half an hour.
Add heavy cream and cook until thoughouly heated.
Stir in the sausage.
Add kale just before serving.

** I used about half this amount last time I made it. With the whole 1 1/2 tsp it was a little too much heat for my kids.

I love this soup too! And you are right, this recipe tastes just like the one in Olive Garden.
My other favorite soup is the creamy vegetable soup from the Dixie Stampede. I googled the recipe and found one that tastes very similar as well. We served it at formal party once and everyone raved about it.

Mmmm....soup:

Lentil Soup-Prep time:20 min /cook time: 35-40 min

2T olive oil
1 Cup finely chopped onion
1/2 " " " celery
1/2 " " " carrot
2 t salt

1 LB lentils, picked and rinsed
1 C peeled + chopped tomatoes (canned ok)
8 C veggie broth
1/2 t ground coriander
1/2 t ground cumin
1/4 t ground black pepper

Heat olive oil in large 6 qt dutch over over medium heat.

Once hot, add onion, celery, carrot and salt and sweat until onions are translucent, approximately 7 min.
Add lentils, tomatoes, broth and seasonings. Stir to combine.
Increase heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, over and cook at a low simmer until lentils are tender, approx. 35-40 min.

If desired, use a stick blender to puree to desired consistency. I usually puree part of it in a blender and add back to soup pot. It's also very good as is.

ETA: I made this tonight and was out of tomatoes so I use 2 heaping tablespoons of salsa. Yum!

This one sounds a little strange, but it's a favorite at my house and a great way to use leftover meatloaf. I make my meatloaf with Lipton Onion Soup mix, but any meatloaf would do.

About 2 thick slices of leftover meatloaf, crumbled into about 2 cups water
1/4 head of cabbage, finely chopped
small can of tomato juice, paste or sauce
Optional: small pasta, such as alphabet and/or any type of beans or veggies

Season to taste, but let it cook for a while first, as the seasoning from the meatloaf will season it a bit. It's fun to try different seasonings in this. If you've got the leftover meatloaf, you can improvise with the other ingredients.
