About Zupa toscana

Zupa Toscana, or "Tuscan Soup," is a comforting dish with roots in Italian cuisine. Traditionally, it features a creamy broth made from potatoes, kale, onions, garlic, and Italian sausage, often enriched with heavy cream and sometimes bacon for added flavor. This hearty soup strikes a balance between indulgence and nutrition, offering the health benefits of nutrient-dense kale, which is high in vitamins A, C, and K, alongside the filling fiber of potatoes. However, the dish can be calorie-heavy due to the inclusion of sausage, bacon, and cream, which contribute significant fat and sodium content. To make a lighter version, substitutions like turkey sausage or reduced-fat milk can be considered. Perfect for colder months, Zupa Toscana is a warm, flavorful choice that showcases fresh, simple ingredients typical of rustic Italian cooking.
