I was wondering if anyone knows the recipe to Olive garden's Chicken & Gnocchi Soup or even something similar. I love this soup and really want to make it for my family this fall.
Thanks so much for your help!!!!

Here's a recipe I found for ya (I've never had the soup myself) Olive Garden Style Chicken Gnocchi Soup Recipe
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 45 min
Ingredients:
Boneless Skinless Frozen Chicken breasts
1 jar Alfredo Sauce 1 can chicken broth
1/3 c. milk
1/3 c. butter
parsely flakes
1/3 c. water
1 can chopped spinach
salt
pepper
celery seeds
garlic quarter
2 cans pilsbury biscuits cut into fourths
Directions:
In a deep baking dish pour half of one can of chicken broth, water, pepper and salt. Lay number of chicken breasts that will fit (depends on amount cooking.) - I used 5.
Next, Pour remainder of can on top of chicken breasts, add a garlic quarter cut in half, salt and pepper, parsely flakes and celery seeds.
Cover with aluminum foil and place in oven on 375 degrees until cooked thoroughly. Drain broth and set aside. Chop chicken and set aside. Discard garlic.
In a large pot pour the alfredo sauce, 1/3 c. milk, and half of the cooked broth. Bring to a slow boil, stirring constantly. If soup is too runny you can add tablespoon flour to thicken. Add quartered biscuits. These will cook in the broth.
Add drained spinach, additional seasonings and broth to taste. Last, add chopped chicken and the butter.
Serves 4
Useful Tip: You can store the remaining chicken broth and freeze for another meal.

Found this version also Olive Garden Style Chicken and Gnocchi Soup This is very close to the Olive Garden soup. There's another recipe on the web which was the basis of this recipe, however I have changed it to use less cream. Still tastes good! I did end up using a little cornstarch to thicken. I guess you could sub heavy cream for the half and half to make it a little thicker without using cornstarch. store. 35 min | 10 min prep SERVES 8 -10 - Saute the onion, celery, onion, garlic, carrot in oil over medium heat until onion is translucent.
- Add chicken, chicken stock, half and half, salt and pepper, thyme. Heat to boiling, then add gnocchi. Gently boil for 4 minutes, then turn down to a simmer for 10 minutes.
- Add spinach and cook for another 1-2 minutes until spinach is wilted.
- (Heat to boiling and add cornstarch dissolved in 1-2 Tbsp water at this point if you want a thicker soup.).
- Ladle into bowls and serve!
