I'm on a liquid diet and am craving pizza, this was pretty good! I pureed everything with an immersion blender and even though I didn't have the correct amounts of all the ingredients, it turned out nice. Very flexible recipe. I added chunks of parmesan off the block which melted into the soup to give it a great flavor. My 6 year old ate it with the addition of rice and gave me the thumbs up. -
Just a note / update - Going by the current Weight Watchers Plan, this recipe is 6 points per serving -
Awesome! I used my blending stick with the first five ingredients then added the remaining. Can't stop eating this! -
Great soup! Super easy! I made this with leftover pizza sauce and pepperoni. I didn't have the full amounts listed in the recipe, but the soup didn't suffer. A very easy, light meal. -
I made a batch of this and took it to work to share for lunch-everyone loved it, whether or not they are following the plan. Thanks for an easy, tasty change of WW pace!

Great recipe! I left out the pizza sauce and added another can of diced Italian tomatoes instead. With this substitution, if you don't put the mozzerella cheese on top, the recipe is only ONE POINT PER CUP!! Adding 1/4 cup of fat-free mozzerella on top of your cup of soup only adds one extra point. Also, I used canned mushrooms instead of fresh; this seemed to work fine.

I have always enjoyed cooking and looking for recipes. I have to admit though, until I joined Weight Watchers four years ago I never did much cooking. Since then it has became vital to do my own cooking and I find I am really good at it. I really enjoy trying new ingredients like Quinoa, Millet, Porktenderloin, hoisin sauce, beans, Textured Vegetable Protein among many other new ingredients. My family has started thinking I am a little weird with all the unusual ingredients I have in my pantry. My passions are my 3 nephews, Matthew, Lucas and Charles and my 8 parrots, Guy, Pete, Toby, Daisy, Zeke, Ernie, Max and Lu. They keep me positive when life takes a nose dive.
