Ingredients
  • 2 cups italian sausage, I used a mild pork
  • 2½ cups water
  • 1 15 oz can pizza sauce, (Muir Glen is sugar-free)
  • 1 15 oz can diced tomatoes, (Muir Glen fire roasted is also sugar-free)
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 cup button mushrooms, diced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced (I used half green, half red)
  • 1 medium zucchini, diced
  • 2 oz or about 12 slices, cut up pepperoni (Applegate is sugar-free)
  • ½ tsp oregano
Instructions
  1. Brown the sausage over medium heat in a dutch oven or soup kettle for about 10 minutes.
  2. While that is cooking, prepare the veggies
  3. Remove the sausage and let the oil drain on a paper towel lined plate
  4. If the sausage had high fat content, remove some of the oil from the pan so there is only a coating to sauté the vegetables
  5. Add onion, mushrooms, peppers and zuchinni to the oil and cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes or onions are transluscent
  6. Add the water, pizza sauce, tomatoes, sausage, pepperoni and oregano and bring to a boil.
  7. Turn heat down to a simmer for 20 minutes and serve
