Olive Garden is one of my favorite restaurants to go to!! This Copy Cat Olive Garden Pasta e Fagioli Soup Recipe is the perfect recipe for a chilly winter evening.
The weather in Spokane is turning cold, snowy which means it is the perfect time to curl up with a hot bowl of soup and just stay inside. As much as we love eating out I don't love dealing with winter roads.
