Copycat Olive Garden Chicken & Gnocchi Soup

This copycat chicken and gnocchi soup brings all the creamy comfort you love, filled with tender spinach ribbons and soft, pillowy gnocchi in every spoonful. It tastes just like the restaurant favorite, but with that cozy homemade touch that makes it even better.

When cooler weather rolls in, a good pot of soup feels like pure happiness. There is something so soothing about a warm bowl loaded with hearty ingredients, all simmered together in one pot that keeps both the cooking and the cleanup simple.

It did not take long for this one to become a regular in the rotation. The broth is rich and creamy without feeling too heavy, especially when made with lighter half and half, and the flavors stay gentle and comforting.

Extra vegetables give it a hearty, chunky texture that balances beautifully with the silky broth. Paired with those plump gnocchi dumplings, every bite feels full, cozy, and incredibly satisfying.
