Join the discussionThat looks incredibly delicious!
Thanks for linking up to Tasty Traditions. The pizza soup looks delicious. Have a great day!
How much pepperoni do you use? Sounds fabulous! Thanks
Duh! I forgot that in the original post. Silly me. Thanks for catching it, I added it in. 🙂
I am so excited for the September Menu! This sounds so good and my family loves SOUP!
🙂
I’ve made this before, several times! My son asks for it constantly!! We’ve adapted it to how we like it, er how HE likes it. I swear, he could eat the entire batch himself! Thanks!
Thanks, can’t wait to make it!!!
I don’t really get the two crock-pot thing. I would think that it would all fit in one 6qt slow cooker or are you doubling it? Looks good and am printing off for my Sept cooking day.
Thanks
Oops, I copied the directions that I wrote for the September menu. I fixed that! Thanks, you are right, it fits in one slow cooker if you are just doing one batch!
Thank you for the recipe idea, i will be trying it out this week!. – Joanne
Can you freeze the croutons? And then just thaw?Or would it taste better to freeze the loaf of bread and then toast just before eating?
Your second suggestion would taste better than your first. Either would likely work though.
