Zuppa Toscana

Zuppa Toscana

“Zuppa Toscana is a soup we love to get at Italian restaurants. This hearty made from scratch recipe is better than what you'll find at that chain restaurant. It's creamy with bits of crunchy, fresh kale in every bite. The sausage adds a spicy kick and there's a hint of smoky flavor from bacon. Serve with garlic bread and you have a comforting Italian meal. We opted to test this recipe in a Crock Pot, but a Dutch oven would be just as easy and delicious.” - Kitchen Crew

Instant Pot Meatloaf and Potatoes

Instant Pot Meatloaf and Potatoes

“What's great about this Instant Pot recipe is it's actually two in one! The meatloaf and potatoes are cooked to perfection at the same time. We have a smaller 5 quart Instant Pot so we opted to half the recipe and use two mini loaf pans side by side; they fit perfectly. The sage in the meatloaf shines with a great savory flavor. We loved the tangy sweetness of the glaze. Potatoes are made to go with meatloaf and these are full of delicious garlic, buttery goodness and topped with yummy Parmesan cheese.” - Kitchen Crew
