Pizza Soup

This recipe is adapted from something that a friend posted on Facebook. I made it my own because I couldn't remember everything I was supposed to get :) This makes for a warm and yummy soup when it is cold outside.

Olive Oil
1 onion - diced
1 green pepper - diced
2 cloves minced garlic
1 red pepper - diced
8-10 mushroom sliced
1 can of diced tomatoes (I used the large can)
1 jar of pizza sauce
24 oz of Veggie Stock (or Chicken/Beef if you like)
2 tbsp italian seasoning
1 tsp crushed red pepper (optional)
S&P to taste

Add olive oil, onion, peppers, garlic and mushroom to a cast iron dutch oven. Saute 3- 5 minutes on medium until veggies start softening. Add all seasonings and tomatoes, stock, and pizza sauce. Stir to combine and put in the oven for 30 minutes. Serve with topped cheese and a peice of crusty bread.

This can be done in the crockpot on low for about 6-8 hours. If you would like to add sausage or ground beef you must brown the meat first. Pepperoni, Canadian Bacon, Cooked Chicken etc can be added once it is ready for the oven or in the crock pot!! Mine turned out great with just veggies :)
