    You don't need to run to Olive Garden when you're craving soup! This Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana takes only 7 minutes and tastes like it's been simmering all day!Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana

    This Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana is the ultimate quick-fix soup that tastes like it's been simmering all day!

    If you've been to Olive Garden, it's likely you've tried this staple soup. It is brothy yet creamy and loaded with soft potato, tender kale, and spicy Italian sausage. It's probably on my list of top five favorite soups ever!

    I love making this in the Instant Pot because it cooks the potatoes so quickly and makes the sausage so tender it almost melts into the soup.

    The best way to eat this Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana is definitely with a big loaf of crusty bread to soak up all the broth. If you need a good bread recipe, this no-knead bread goes perfectly with it!

    Tools I Use For Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana:

    • The Instant Pot 🙂 : This is the model that I have and LOVE. My Instant Pot has been with me for over a year, and I’ve put it through the ringer, but still works like new! It’s changed the dinnertime routine at our house and helps me make meals in under an hour that used to take HOURS!
    • The Chop Stir: This strange little tool makes short work of browning ground meat with its odd shape that allows it to crumble the meat quickly as it cooks.

      Can I replace both potato and kale with other vegetables? pumpkin, sweet potato, or something else. Let me try Flicking Soccer.

      I know kale is really good for you but I’m not a fan! Can you use spinach instead??
