Zuppa Toscana Recipe
Ingredients:
3 Quarts of homemade Bone Broth or store-bought broth. If you are buying it watch out for bad additives, even organic broth has hidden MSG I find (autolyzed yeast extract, even the words “natural flavorings” can mean soy or other pretty bad stuff). Click above for our Bone Broth recipe.
2 Packages Organic Nitrate / Nitrite Free Sausage sliced in half lengthwise and then sliced up and cooked
6 Organic Potatoes washed and sliced in half and then sliced again in thin slices
6 Slices Organic Uncured / Nitrate Free Bacon cooked until crisp and diced.
1 1/2 Cups Organic Milk
1 onion diced and sauteed in butter or coconut oil.
Garlic and Onion Powder (I also just do this to taste depending on broth. My homemade broth does not need it.)
