My family loves Olive Garden but I am not to fond of the bill after feeding this whole crew. Making CopyCat Olive Garden at home has saved us quite a bit of cash. My daughter and I are huge fans of our CopyCat Olive Garden Salad Dressing. The hubby and I like to enjoy CopyCat Olive Garden Minestrone Soup. When I make CopyCat Olive Garden Toasted Ravioli, there is NEVER any leftovers.
