How to make Zuppa Toscana Soup

One of my most favorite dishes ever is the Zuppa Toscana Soup at Olive Garden.

A while back I found this copy cat recipe on Pinterest and I've been sitting on it since, longing to make it but afraid that it wouldn't taste near as good. I finally purchased the ingredients over the weekend and made it. And I can say, it's just as good at the Olive Garden, if not better. It's really delicious!

Directions:
1. Brown sausage in a pan over medium, breaking up into small pieces as it cooks.
2. Drain sausage and set to the side.
3. Brown bacon in a pan over medium heat.
4. Drain bacon and set to the side.
