CHICKEN AND POTATO FLORENTINE SOUP (OLIVE GARDEN)

Chicken and Potato Florentine Soup (Olive Garden) image

Ever since the first time I saw the Chicken and Potato Florentine Soup being advertised on TV, I couldn't stop thinking about it. It just looked so delicious. So here's my attempt at making a clone of it. Let me know what you think. Post Script: The first batch has been deemed a success by my husband and daughter. They would give it a 5 Star Rating, but of course, they're partial to the cook! From the kitchen of Tona Thornburg Court, Moberly, Missouri.

CHICKEN FLORENTINE SOUP

Chicken Florentine Soup image

Soup is what happens when I have leftovers in the house and it's time to clear out the veggie drawer. I got the inspiration while lunching at the Palm Tree Grille in Mount Dora when attending the annual Plant and Garden Sale. I didn't have their soup but it was on special. This will be great for lunches during the week.

CHICKEN AND POTATO FLORENTINE SOUP

Chicken and Potato Florentine Soup image

On a recent visit to Olive Garden, I tried their Chicken and Potato Florentine Soup and savored every bite. Later, I tried to order some for take out only to learn that it was no longer on their menu. I hoped that someone had created a copycat recipe. But my searching only revealed that others also loved this soup and were looking for a copycat recipe. I only had the soup once -- and that was several weeks ago. This is my attempt.

POTATO FLORENTINE SOUP

Potato Florentine Soup image

This is a lovely soup from The Moosewood New Classics. I made it pretty much as written, but I think it has possibilities for other additions - maybe some carrots, or some ham or bacon - but it's very nice as is.
