Slow Cooker Pizza and Pasta Soup is a meal your whole family will love!

This Hearty Soup has pizza supreme flavors with bow-tie pasta and even better that this meal is a freezer meal friendly!

Pizza soup in slow cooker with bowtie pasta

This Slow Cooker Pizza and Pasta Soup recipe was originally going to be lasagna soup, then I had a wild idea to add pepperoni then the entire recipe changed. Supreme pizza flavors are in this soup: beef, pepperoni, mushrooms, onions and olives.

This meal could be made the morning of or could be made into a freezer meal. I made 2 of these meals at once, one for a busy Monday dinner and the other I tucked away in the freezer for later in the month.

I top this soup with mozzarella cheese. I wish I had bought French bread to go with this, that would have been so good dipped into the soup.

Here are my favorite freezer meals:

  • Slow Cooker Teriyaki Beef
  • Slow Cooker Orange Drumsticks
  • Slow Cooker Tuscan Chicken and White Bean Soup
  • Slow Cooker Lipton Onion Meatloaf
Three white bowls of pizza soup with mozzarella on top.

      Hi I am about to make this. Is there any reason why the pasta couldn’t in uncooked at the beginning?

        The slow cooker doesn’t get hot enough to cook dried pasta correctly. It turns out chalky.

        I think that would work fine.

      I found this recipe on Facebook and showed it to my husband who is a super picky eater. He agreed to try it and absolutely loved it! He said it was a 10/10! We will definitely be making this again. I used the little bow tie pasta because that’s what I had and omitted the olives because we don’t care for them. Other than that, I followed your recipe. Delicious! Thank you for sharing!

      Three four cups water for addition to soup or cooking noodles?

          That seems to be a lot of water. I could understand if you were adding the uncooked pasta at the beginning, otherwise it would be to runny, in my opinion. I’m gonna try it.

      I love the idea of preparing this in advance and freezing for those busy evenings! I might even get my husband to cook! 😉

      Love this idea for a soup! I mean, how can you go wrong with pizza flavors? 😉 And so smart to make a double batch so you can freeze half for later.

      This soup looks really yummy. I’m going to make it 100% by your recipe. But one quick question: Why are the ingredients frozen for a month? What does this step add to the finished dish? Thanks for the info and please keep doing your great work! AR

        This doesn’t need to be froze unless you are meal planning. I made it once without freezing and once with freezing . Tasted the same both ways.
