warm soup for a cold winter day

I wasn’t a big fan of soup until college. The first time you catch a cold in college, your parents aren’t there to take care of you anymore. A warm bowl of soup isn’t quite the same but it does the trick. I wanted to step outside my culinary comfort zone, so I decided to try making soup for the first time. Here’s my take on Olive Garden’s Zuppa Toscana. I got the inspiration from an Instagram Reel and thought, wait, soup doesn’t seem that hard to make. It ended up being one of the least stressful dishes I’ve ever made. You practically toss everything into a pot and let it come together.
