PEARL CHATS: This is a whole new way to eat tomato soup, and it will be devoured before your eyes! Not a soul will ever guess about the secret veggie; it just makes the soup creamier. This is a hit with every kid I have ever served it to, and even more exciting—it’s done from start to finish within 15 minutes!

Ingredients
    For the Bisque
  • 1 lbs ground sausage (1 to 1½ pounds of mild sausage meat; I use turkey, but you can use any kind, thawed if frozen)
  • 4 oz pepperoni (diced; I use turkey, but you can use any kind)
  • 14 oz sugar free pizza sauce (one 14-ounce jar sugar-free pizza sauce or the same amount Perfect Pizza Sauce -page 516)
  • 16 oz tomato sauce (two 8-ounce cans tomato sauce)
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen okra (diced)
  • 32 oz chicken broth (1 quart chicken broth, with an optional 3 to 4 tablespoons Just Gelatin or Integral Collagen; see Page 40)
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/2 tsp basil (dried)
  • 1/2 tsp oregano (dried)
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder (½ to ¾ teaspoon garlic powder)
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper (or adjust to your liking)
  • TH Mineral Salt (to taste)
  • black pepper (to taste)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
    • Additions for Loaded Version
  • 10 oz frozen small-cut seasoning blend (one 10-12 ounce bag frozen small-cut seasoning blend; see page 35)
  • 8 oz fresh mushrooms (sliced)
  • 2 oz black olives (2 to 3 ounces, diced black or green olives)
Instructions
  1. 1

    Brown the sausage with the pepperoni in the bottom of a large soup pot over medium-high heat. (If making the loaded version, add in the seasoning blend, mushrooms, and olives at the same time and sauté along with the meats while they are browning.)

  2. 2

    Put the pizza sauce, canned tomato sauce, and okra in a blender and blend. Blend like a champ until smooth as silk and no little green okra bits are there to tell the tale.

  3. 3

    Pour the blender mixture into the pot along with the chicken broth with the optional gelatin and collagen (if using) and the water. Add the basil, oregano, garlic powder, cayenne, salt and pepper to taste (only ½ to ¾ teaspoon salt is needed), and the heavy cream. Bring to a quick boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for another 5 to 10 minutes.
