The weather is wet and cold and the night comes early which can only mean one thing: it's soup season! I decided to try and adapt one of my favorite fall soups, Zuppa Toscana, to be a little bit lower fat and higher protein. Have along side some sourdough and it's a full meal on it's own.

Serves 6-8, macros at 8 portions per recipe with 80g of sourdough:

Zuppa Toscana with sourdough. 585kcal, 26g protein, 15g fat, 85g carbs, 10g fiber.

You could up the sausage amount for some extra protein, but it's a good balance of flavors with just the 1 lbs. Making your own sausage with lean meat is a super easy way to reduce the calories of traditional recipes using sausage. Just be careful to not cook it too hard as it can dry out easier without the extra fat.

Down 2 lbs this week for 72 lbs lost total. Full recipe in the comments!
