My Top Tips for Making Pizza Soup
Instead of plain tomato purée, feel free to use your favorite jarred marinara or pizza sauce! They come in so many delicious flavors like roasted garlic, sweet basil, and more.
This soup pairs so well with a warm slice of homemade flatbread or crusty garlic bread! 🙂
You can also balance out this cozy bowl with a simple, crisp garden salad on the side.
If you’re adding pizza toppings like sliced mushrooms or extra veggies, I recommend sautéing them in a skillet first and stirring them into the soup right before serving.
Can You Make Pizza Soup Ahead of Time?
You sure can! Pizza soup actually gets even better as it sits. You can easily make it 1 to 2 days in advance and store it in an airtight container in the fridge until you’re ready to reheat and serve.
This pizza soup is also perfect for parties or gatherings! You can easily make a big batch ahead of time and simply reheat it right before serving.
How Long Does Pizza Soup Last?
Any leftover soup can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
If you want to freeze your leftovers, just transfer the soup to a freezer bag or freezer-safe container.
It will keep in the freezer for up to 3 months.
