My oldest daughter is a senior in high school this year, and we have been doing college visits almost every week this fall. Two weeks ago we stopped at The Olive Garden to eat after a college visit and I had Zuppa Toscana soup and loved it. I can’t believe I’ve never had this soup before. So last week I found a recipe and made it for dinner. Everyone loved it, and my son even had the leftovers for lunch the next day, and my kids never eat leftovers for lunch. This is the only recipe I’ve ever tried with my family with kale in it that they haven’t complained about.
