"Zuppa Toscana literally translates to "Tuscan soup". This hearty soup is normally made with high-carb ingredients like potatoes, carrots, cannellini beans, and Tuscan bread. But luckily, there are ways to get around this recipe to make it low-carb while staying close to the original flavors. The recipe below, however, is closer to an American version of this soup popularly served at Olive Garden. This makes it creamier and richer than the original – something to always look for in your keto meals."

NotesIf you ever tried this soup at Olive Garden, you know it’s made in a thick and creamy broth. This comes from the flour added as a thickener. To get a similar effect, use 1-2 tablespoons of arrowroot starch or glucomannan powder.
