OLIVE GARDEN INSPIRED ZUPPA TOSCANA

This is the second Olive Garden inspired soup that I have made.  My personal favorite is the Olive Garden  inspired Chicken Gnocchi Soup.   My coworkers were divided, some preferred the Zuppa Toscana and some the Chicken Gnocchi.  I guess  you will have to give both a try and have your own taste test.  I found several recipes online and ended up combining several recipes to get the taste I was after.  Feel free to make changes and let me know how it turns out.
