Pizza Soup

[BamsBBQ]

i watch this on tv and had to go find the recipe and make it.

http://www.foodtv.ca/recipes/recipedetails.aspx?dishid=9525

2 tbsp olive oil
2 onions, peeled and chopped
4 cloves garlic, peeled and minced (i used 6)
28 oz can whole tomatoes
2 cups chicken broth
1 tbsp dried oregano (used italian seasoning)
2 carrots, peeled and grated (i didnt have any so i put in some dried salami, about 10 thick slices)
8 oz Pepperoni, thinly sliced
Sprinkled sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
4 slices bread
2 cups grated Mozzarella cheese

i didnt have any french onion soup oven bowls so i used a stainless steel bowl

next time i would add a little more stock as the bread sucks alot of the juice.

will also add traditional pizza toppings next time.

this is a winner, just needs a little tweaking

I must say, that's the first time I've ever seen carrots substituted with Salami in a recipe before :ermm:

Tell me that you substituted the salami for the pepperoni on the next line and not the carrots, Jeff :lol:

Thanks for the review and info. It looked like a winner. It''s nice to kow it is. :a1:

I still couldn't wrap my head around adding the carrots anyway. Have you ever had a pizza with carrots? Was it to sweeten the soup? It just seemed odd to me. The rest of it sounds delish!!

i have no idea what the carrots were for either, maybe to add some color to it, but to me it looked fine.

the other thing i would do for next time, is to make toasted garlic bread instead of the plain bread.
