I know I have been posting quite a few soup recipes lately but it is really far too cold to eat anything else. With wind chills nearing -20 here in the frozen tundra there isn’t anything else I would rather eat to satisfy the warmth my body is craving.
Plus, it is easy. Like ridiculously easy and there are many variations you could make to it. I mean, it is what it says, pizza in a soup. Everything a normal pizza would contain minus the crust. In other words, all the flavor without any evil.
Great for company, great for freezing, great for eating. You can’t go wrong and it is sure to become a family favorite.
Hearty, warm and comforting all in one pot. Could we just call it the “One Pot Wonder?”
