Beef and Pepperoni Soup

With flavors of pizza, this beef and pepperoni soup is tasty, filling, and comforting. It’s also very easy to put together and it can simmer while you make a salad and bread balls (or French bread rolls) to go with it.

I like to have a low carb soup like this that I can eat with a salad. I served it with bread balls, but didn’t eat any myself. I often do that with dinner. I eat the meat and vegetable part of the meal but make the starchier part of the meal for my family to enjoy. I always keep it gluten free though.

My family enjoyed this soup and thought that the pepperoni in it made it fun and flavorful.
