I love pizza. And I’ve no shame in admitting that we eat it at least three times a month. Sometimes more, sometimes less.
It just depends, especially when you take into consideration that in our house- pizza, or one of our versions of it, is acceptable for any meal of the day.
We’ve put it in grilled cheese. We’ve put it in pasta salad. We’ve even put it in pancakes. All are yummy family favorites.
I’ve even experimented, with great success, with warping our favorite pizza flavors into different dishes.
Take our Meat Lover’s Pizza Casserole for example. Or this dip. Even this yummy pull -apart appetizer bread. But I must say my triumph was discovering the best way to get those same flavors I love in liquid form.
This is exactly how we came to know and love this Barbecue Chicken Pizza Soup.
This is everything you love about barbecue chicken pizza,but in a pot that’s full of slurpin’ fun. A barbecue and chicken stock base are studded with chunks of rotisserie chicken, diced red onion, and flecks of golden corn.
