Here is how you make Vegetarian 'Olive Garden' Soup:

The most you have to do for this recipe is cutt the ingredients up...So lets get started... Cube your "sausage", chop your "bacon" and your baked potatos with skin still on. You could also slice the potato like they do in the restaurant.I have found that this is a great use for left over baked potatos when you need to use them up. When you are done chopping, add your sausage and bacon to the oiled pot on a med/high heat. Add your seasonings (crushed red pepper flakes, salt, garlic powder, parsley, onion flakes, and pepper).Let this mixture meld and cook for 5 minutes to let the faux meats crisp. Once they have cooked, add your broth. You could also if you do not have the broth or do not want to spend the money. Just combine water and about 7 to 8 no chicken added bouillan cubes. NOTE: (this will add more salt) Let this mixture come to a boil and add your washed and cleaned kale. (The easiest way to do this is fill your clean sink with cold water and let sit until washed and de-sanded, and then remove the leaves from the steams)This is the where the waiting begins, cover and let the soup cook the kale until tender. Once the kale is tender, turn off your soup and add your cream and stir. (You could also use Soy Milk, regular milk or low fat versions), the cream gives it the texture that you get in the restaurant. This soup is ready to eat!Serve with bread or without, it is up to you...(The soup freezes well in individual servings, if you do not eat it all up)I hope your family loves the soup as much as my own and that it becomes apart of your own recipes.
