SLOW COOKER PIZZA SOUP

I absolutely love soup and am always on the lookout for new recipes that are easy and yummy too! I found this recipe several years ago and have made it for lots of potlucks and family dinners! You can add any pizza toppings and customize the soup to taste just like your favorite pizza!

SLOW COOKER PIZZA SOUP

2 family-size cans tomato soup

6 cups water

2 cups diced tomatoes (you can use fresh or canned tomatoes)

1 medium onion diced

1 green pepper, diced

4 ounces black olives, sliced

8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced

1 lb. Italian sausage browned, drained and crumbled

1 small pkg. pepperoni, diced

1 1/2 Tbsp. dried basil

2 Tbsp. dried oregano

1 Tbsp. onion powder

1 Tbsp. garlic powder

I added the onion to my sausage while I was browning it. Once the sausage and onions are cooked, put all of the ingredients into a large Crockpot and cook on low for 4-5 hours or on high for 2-3 hours. Top with mozzarella and/or parmesan cheese and enjoy!
