Crockpot Monday: Pizza Soup

I love pizza. I could eat pizza nearly every night of the week, I think. Since my oven died though, I can't make it so this is a close second!

Pizza Soup:

Ingredients:
1 jar (14 oz) of pizza sauce
3 empty jars full of water
1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1/2 red onion, chopped
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 cup baby tomatoes, cut in quarters (or 1 can diced tomatoes, drained)
2 already-cooked Italian sausages
1 cup sliced pepperoni, sliced in quarters
8 fresh basil leaves, chopped (or 1/2 Tablespoon dried)
1 Tablespoon dried oregano
1/2 dried pasta
shredded mozzarella cheese (to add later)

Directions: 

Use a 5 or 6 quart crockpot for this recipe.

Wash and prepare veggies. Dump them into the crockpot. Cut up the sausage into small pieces and add. Cut up the pepperoni and add that along with the basil and oregano. Pour in the pizza sauce and follow with three empty jars of water.

Cover and cook on low for 7-9 hours.

Thirty minutes before serving, add the dry pasta, and turn to high.  Garnish/top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
