Directions:
Step 1
in a pan, cook 1 pound of sausages until it turns brown and cooked through, then drain the excess grease if there’s any. Once the sausages are ready, add them at the bottom of the crockpot, followed by pepperoni which was cut into smaller bite-sized pieces, add in the bell peppers, onions, olives, Italian seasoning, minced garlic, and pasta sauce. Add water to the jar of the pasta sauce to get any leftover, shake it well and pour it in the crockpot, pour in the beef broth as well. Stir all the ingredients together until well combined.

Slice the cream cheese into cubes and place them on top of the soup ingredients but do not mix it in. Place the lid on the crockpot and cook it on a high setting for about 2 to 3 hours or on a low setting for about 4 to 6 hours, stirring occasionally.
