Cooking Directions

No need to pre-soak the beans in this recipe! Place the 15 bean soup mix in a strainer. Sort through the beans and discard any debris. Rinse with cold water. Drain off any excess water.
Add the rinsed beans to the slow cooker.
Add the sausage, pepperoni, bell pepper, onion, mushrooms, olives, garlic, oregano, red pepper flakes, and chicken broth. DO NOT ADD MARINARA SAUCE YET
Stir. Place the lid on the slow cooker. Cook on HIGH for 5 hours without opening the lid during the cooking time
When the cooking time is up, add the marinara (or pizza sauce), stir.
I do not think this recipe needs salt, but taste and decide if you think it does.
Top each bowl with shredded mozzarella and a pinch of red pepper flakes if desired.

Tips

Brown the sausage in a skillet on the stovetop. I use a roll of breakfast sausage for this recipe. Slice the pepperoni in thick slices. Add both of these to the slow cooker.
