For day 2 of this week’s blogging marathon I took my daughters help to come up with a soup recipe that they want to eat. She ended up choosing Vegetarian Pizza soup because of course pizza is a food group for my kids.This soup has all the flavors of your favorite pizza. So feel free to add all your favorite pizza toppings and that could be anything from veggies to meat based on your taste and dietary preferences.
What is Pizza Soup:
This dish has 2 components: First is the soup which is basically tomato based with the addition of pizza flavorings and ingredients. You are free to customize it with ingredients that you enjoy on your pizza. My kids love mushrooms, spinach, peppers and onion on their pizza - so I added those into the soup.The second component is the cheesy baguette crouton. What’s a pizza without the bread? The cheesy, chewy ‘crouton’ is great to dunk into the pizza to sop up all that delicious soup.
Some other ideas:
Make this vegetarian pizza soup rich by adding a splash of almond or coconut creamer (half-n-half or heavy cream for non-vegan option). The pizza tomato soup can be made ahead and chilled for 2-3 days or frozen for up to 3 months. Don’t add the creamer if freezing though. Add it while warming the soup just before serving. Slurp and enjoy!! Don’t forget to check out what my fellow marathoners have cooked up today for BM# 106.
