Instructions
In a large saucepot or enamel dutch oven, place the tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes, water, garlic, basil, oregano, and sugar.
1 can crushed or diced tomatoes, 2 cups water, 1 can tomato sauce, 1 1/2 tbsp oregano, 1 1/2 tsp basil, 1 1/2 tsp granulated garlic, 1 tbsp sugar, 1 can tomato paste
Cut the pepperoni in halves or fourths and add that along with the meatballs to the pot.
3.5 ounces pepperoni, 12-15 meatballs
Bring just to a boil over medium-high heat and then reduce temperature to low, stirring every now and then. Allow to simmer for 20-30 minutes, or until meatballs are heated through and soup has developed full flavor.
To serve: cut 1-inch slices of Italian bread and place them on a baking sheet. Place in a 350-degree oven until toasted. Ladle soup into bowls and top each with a slice of bread and a liberal sprinkling of cheese. Place all bowls back on the baking sheet and put in the oven on low broil. Watch very carefully and remove once the cheese is lightly browned and bubbly on top. Serve immediately but warn folks that the bowls are hot.
