INGREDIENTS
4 oz. bacon finely chopped
1 sweet onion finely diced
4 garlic cloves crushed
1 lb. Italian sausage ground, mild
6 cups chicken broth regular sodium
2 ½ lbs. russet potatoes cut into 1-inch cubes
½-¾ tsp. salt to taste
½-¾ tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
¼ tsp. black pepper to taste
⅔ cup raw cashews soaked for 1 hour in warm water
⅔ cup almond milk or cashew milk
1 bunch kale finely chopped
Parsley optional


INSTRUCTIONS:
Place raw cashews in a bowl of warm water and let soak for 1 hour.
Set Instant Pot to the sauté function and sauté chopped bacon for 7-8 minutes, or until cooked through. Remove bacon pieces and place on a paper towel to drain.
Add diced onion and crushed garlic to the Instant Pot with remaining bacon fat and sauté for 2 minutes. Add sausage and cook for 7-8 minutes, or until cooked through. Drain all fat from pot except for 2 tablespoons. Discard the rest.

Pour in chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the pot to ensure there are no bits or pieces stuck. Add potatoes, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
Cover with lid, set pressure release valve to sealed, and set Instant Pot to high pressure for 6 minutes. After timer goes off, let soup sit in Instant Pot for 10 minutes (10-minute natural pressure release) before releasing the pressure valve.
While soup is cooking in the Instant Pot, place cashews and milk in a high speed blender or food processor and blend for 1-2 minutes, or until completely smooth.
Once soup is done cooking, stir in cashew cream and add chopped kale. Serve soup with bacon pieces and fresh parsley. Enjoy!

RECIPE NOTES
Stove-Top Zuppa Toscana Soup: Follow the instructions outlined above but set a Dutch oven to Medium heat instead of the sauté function. Once you have added your broth, potatoes and seasoning ingredients, reduce the heat to a simmer, cover your pot with a lid, and cook for 20-25 minutes or until your potatoes are fork tender.
Crock-Pot Zuppa Toscana Soup: Follow the sauté instructions outlined above by sautéing your ingredients in a separate pan or pot. Add these to the crock-pot with the potatoes, broth, and seasoning ingredients. Set your slow cooker to Low and cook for 4-6 hours, or until potatoes are cooked through for a Crock-Pot zuppa toscana recipe.
