Pizza Supreme Soup

Nothing beats a warm bowl of soup in the winter. Especially if said soup taste just like a slice of supreme pizza! 

This is no wimpy, frilly "girl soup" either.  This one is hearty and definitely one that will keep you full and appeal to the boys in your life.  Well, my boys still didn't touch it but only because they wouldn't touch a piece of supreme pizza either. They stick to Italian Sausage mainly.

Pizza Supreme Soup

1 pound Italian sausage
1 bag of frozen mixed peppers and onions
 or one cup red and yellow peppers, sliced and one cup of onions
2 cans petite diced tomatoes
3 cloves of garlic
2 pinches of red pepper flakes
3 oz chopped turkey pepperoni
4 oz chopped hard salami
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
4 cups chicken stock/broth
2 large handfuls of Spinach/Arugula mix
3/4 cup sliced olives
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms, optional
Mozzarella cheese, grated

Brown Italian sausage. After a few minutes, add the onion, green pepper, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, basil and oregano. (I used Tuscan Sunset from Penzey's).

When the onions are translucent, add pepperoni and salami.  Cook for a few minutes.

Then add the stock, tomatoes and cook for 20 minutes.

Finally add spinach and olives. (If you are adding mushrooms add those now.)

Once spinach has wilted to your liking, garnish with mozzarella cheese.

This is definitely risen to the top of my favorite soup list!
