Perfect recipe, easy to follow for a beginner like me, and it came out great! I’ll be making this soup a lot.

This is the best copy cat recipe for this soup and is my staple!

I’ve made this twice, once for my own family once with company. My friend asked me to make it today for her open house game board party. Once I did it with beef w/o bacon, second time I did it with beef and bacon, today I have sweet Italian sauce but no bacon, haha. Any which way tastes delicious.

Hey Kim,

Karina appreciates the feedback Thank so much for the 5-star rating.

Yes, you can definitely prepare Zuppa Toscana in advance and freeze portions of it! Here are some tips for freezing and reheating:

Cook and Cool: Prepare the soup according to the recipe, then allow it to cool completely before freezing.

Storage: Transfer the cooled soup to airtight containers or heavy-duty freezer bags. If using bags, lay them flat in the freezer for easier storage.

Freezing: The soup can be frozen for up to 3 months. However, note that the texture of the potatoes and kale may change slightly when thawed, as they can become softer.

Reheating: When you’re ready to serve, thaw the soup in the refrigerator overnight. You can reheat it on the stove over low heat until warmed through. If the soup is too thick after freezing, you can thin it with a little additional chicken broth or cream.

Add Fresh Ingredients: If you want to maintain the best texture and flavor, consider adding fresh kale and bacon when reheating, as they are best enjoyed freshly cooked.

By following these steps, you can enjoy Zuppa Toscana even when you’re short on time!

This recipe is always a family and friends hit!

Could I make all, or even a portion of it, in advance and freeze until ready to serve or complete?
